Attacking manual, paperback/jacob aagaard

Description Attacking Manuals 1 & 2 comprise the first thorough examination of the nature of dynamics in chess, and the principles explained in this book are relevant to every chess game played.

In lively no-nonsense language, Aagaard explains how the best players in the world attack.

The rules of attack (the exploitation of a dynamic advantage) are explained in an accessible and entertaining style.

This groundbreaking work is well balanced between easily understandable examples, exercises and deep analysis.

Volume 2 covers what to do once the attack is up and running, and deals with weak kings, intuitive sacrifices, opposite castling, king hunts, and enduring initiative.

Attacking Manuals 1 & 2 were chosen as the English Chess Federations Book of the Year 2010.
