We've updated the cover of "Winning Chess Tactics" so that the Microsoft Press "RM" Chess series has a more cohesive and dynamic look. This book is a fascinating and enlightening introduction to the details of chess, from two internationally recognized players. Chess players can now put the tactics of the world's chess legends to work for them -- such as the double attack, the pin, the skewer, and more -- in every game. International Grand Master Yasser Seirawan and International Master Jeremy Silman teach players how to plan their entire game from the very first move, think ahead through every obstruction their opponent will throw their way, and position themselves for the smashing combination and end game they've always dreamed of. It is as compelling and enjoyable for aspiring chess players as it is for more advanced players. Plentiful chessboard illustrations make this book a tactician's dream.
