Sakelsek Tadej, Mikhalchishin Adrian. The Power of Tactics. Volume 3: Calculate like Champions

Chess Evolutionv Kft., September 22, 2020. — 376 p.This is the third volume of a new series.In the first book we tried to demonstrate a slightly different approach to studying tactics, and we chose tactical elements according to a great champion — Vasily Smyslov — to do so.The second book was devoted to much more complicated tactical ideas and motifs. We will also continue to develop the ideas from the first book.In this third book, the authors continue to develop their idea from the first two volumes where they explored the most important feature of chess through the eyes of a great Champion, Vassily Smyslov. The book is built systematically and includes numerous different ‘test your tactics’ elements, such as simple solutions, win the material, tactics according to Smyslov, make a choice, unexpected opportunity, answer the question, play better than the champions, complicated calculation and practical exercises.I can heartily recommend this book to all players even up to and including Grandmaster level. You will find joy while solving the puzzles and improving your calculation." -- GM Georg Mohr
