Review "There is also masses of stuff in the book that made me go Oooh! and Aaah! so I think it will have the same effect on you! In particular, I loved Rios exposition of Whites plan of exerting queenside pressure against Hedgehog systems. Id seen one of the games he quotes in his chapter but Id never remotely made any link to a structured way of fighting the Hedgehog structure, so this chapter was a real eye-opener for me…In conclusion, warmly recommended. Lots to learn!" - GM Matthew Sadler, New in Chess"Mauricio Flores Rios has made a welcome and important addition to the literature…It seems that a lot of thought went into the pedagogical makeup of the book, and that effort has paid off grandly. This is among the best non-beginner works for learning chess that Ive seen…Heres hoping that this is not the last book we see from this young Grandmaster!" -- John Hartmann (full review)"Quality Chess never seem afraid of publishing books which might not, at first glance, attract a wide readership. Chess Structures is a case in point. It cant be easy even thinking of an attention-grabbing title for such a subject, but I can say right from the start that this erudite tome is well worth the investment of time and money." -- Sean Marsh, CHESS magazine"In studying this book, the reader will become acquainted with the typical plans, patterns, and strategic ideas related to the various pawn structures, with each game designed to be a building block toward the understanding of the structure as a whole.No matter what your rating, the reader will learn much more about chess to a far deeper extent by studying this book than by looking for the latest move-thirty novelty in any opening treatise.My assessment of this product: 6/6" -- Brian Almeida, ChessCafe (full review)"All in all, I recommend this book wholeheartedly. Any player that seriously studies this book will gain a complete picture of the major pawn structures of the game and will hence improve greatly his understanding." -- Gollum (full review)"Flores excellently manages to find the positional essence and the basic plans to take from the games, in short and very understandable comments… Essential for players rated between 1500 and 2300." -- Dennis Calder Details ISBN1784830003 Author Mauricio Flores Rios Pages 464 Year 2015 ISBN-10 1784830003 ISBN-13 9781784830007 Format Paperback Short Title CHESS STRUCTURES Language English Media Book Subtitle A Grandmaster Guide Imprint Quality Chess UK LLP Place of Publication Glasgow Country of Publication United Kingdom Publication Date 2015-02-04 UK Release Date 2015-02-04 AU Release Date 2015-02-04 NZ Release Date 2015-02-04 Publisher Quality Chess UK LLP DEWEY 794.12 Illustrations b/w illus Audience General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
