Steve Giddins hat 50 höchst lehrreiche Partien
ausgesucht - einige alte, einige neue, und darunter viele, die die wenigsten
Leser schon gesehen haben werden.
Er analysiert diese Partien detailliert aus einer modernen
Perspektive und erklärt die nützlichen Schlussfolgerungen, die daraus
gezogen werden können, wobei er das schädliche Dogma oder die
unrealistischen Darstellungen "großartiger Pläne" vermeidet, die
viele ältere Werke dieser Art charakterisierten. Die Betonung liegt
durchweg auf der Identifizierung hilfreicher "Miniregeln" - goldene Weisheiten,
die extrem nützlich sind, wenn man einem einfallsreichen Gegner am Brett
begegnet.
Einige Themen:
Königsangriff
Verteidigung
Macht der Figuren
Endspielthemen
Am Ende jeder Partie folgt eine kurze Zusammenfassung der
wichtigsten Lektionen, die daraus zu lernen sind. Wie in seinem vorherigen und
äußerst erfolgreichen Buch Der Aufbau
eines Eröffnungsrepertoires, spricht Giddins' zugänglicher
und sachlicher Schreibstil alle Clubspieler an, die ihr Verständnis im
praktischen Schach verbessern wollen. Sein Interesse für die
Schachliteratur in russischer Sprache hat es ihm ermöglicht, viele
erstklassige Beispiele zu finden, die in der früheren westlichen Literatur
nicht veröffentlicht wurden.
Steve Giddins ist ein englischer FIDE-Meister, der
regelmäßig an internationalen Turnieren teilnimmt und häufig
Beiträge für das British Chess Magazine verfasst. Dies ist
sein drittes Buch für den Gambit-Verlag. Er wird als ein Autor
geschätzt, der nützliche, geradlinige Ratschläge zu Themen von
echter praktischer Bedeutung erteilt.

"Eine wirklich gute Leistung von Fide-Meister Giddins, der
schon viele Erfahrungen als Trainer und Schach-Autor gesammelt hat." -
Fernando Offermann, Berliner
Schachverband
"Giddins has written another excellent book ... It is a
teaching text that uses 50 very well-selected complete games - not the usual
suspects - to illustrate various kinds of positions from opening to endgame.
Giddins gives descriptions of key ideas of the games, tips for how to play
them, and what to look out for. Again, the book's effectiveness is based upon
its very clear and easy-to-digest presentation. I reviewed this book at length
on one of my radio shows and can highly recommend it for average-strength
players." - IM John Watson,
TWIC
"Steve Giddins is gaining a reputation as a chess author
mainly because of the clear manner in which he presents his thoughts and this
book is another landmark in his oeuvre." - Bill Frost,
www.chessdevon.co.uk
"The nice thing about this collection of games is that most
of the games use the openings which are popular today (Sicilians, Kings
Indians, and Nimzo-Indians for example), so most likely you will find at least
a few games with openings you play. With 50 top quality lessons, for less than
50 cents each, this is an outstanding book!" - Andy May,
www.nsgchess.com
"...an excellent teaching book" - Schachmarkt
"…an easy, enjoyable read that at the same time helps a
player improve" - Vanessa West, Chess Life
"Amid the recent flood of chess books, this one stands out
as being one that can be heartily recommended to anyone seeking both
entertainment and instruction on wide variety of chess topics in one volume.
Would make a good present, say for a keen (and literate) junior." - Phil
Adams, http://www.btinternet.com/~cccs.chess
"It is a book that I would recommend for any player rated
above 1000 ELO through 2199 (So, if you're not a master, than you should be
studying these games)." - Leopold Lacrimosa,
amchesscoaching.com
"...an instructional gem of a book that can probably help
almost any player improve but will be especially useful to novices and
intermediate because of the detailed annotation and the depth of the
explanation. ... Highly recommended!" - Bill Whited,
www.chesscountry.com
"With 50 Essential Chess Lessons, Steve Giddins [has]
taken inspiration from Irving Chernev's The Most Instructive Games of Chess
Ever Played and produced an excellent primer of positional play for the
novice to intermediate player. His thoughtful selection and arrangement of
games, and his clear and instructive annotations put this book at the top of
the list of annotated collections for the developing player." - Richard
Roseborough, www.chesscafe.com
"I always enjoy the entertaining and instructive writings of
FIDE Master Steve Giddins, and his latest Gambit book, "50 Essential Chess
Lessons", is an absolute gem. The reader gets treated to a mouth-watering
feast of fifty memorable games, each one annotated with great depth, clarity,
and due attention to the most important lessons which should be learned from
studying the material." - GM Paul Motwani, The Scotsman
"As with his previous, highly successful book How to Build Your Chess Opening Repertoire,
Giddins writes in an accessible, down-to-earth style that should appeal to all
players seeking to improve their understanding of practical chess." - Phil
Hughes, Chess Post
"This one is one of those books I wish I had 30-40 years
ago. I would've become a master (if I had taken the time to study it)." -
Bob Long, www.chessco.com
"50 Essential Chess Lessons is a solid work with well
chosen, but not so well known, examples that would be useful reading for most
club and mid level tournament players. Recommended." - John Donaldson,
www.jeremysilman.com
"The Bottom Line: Highly recommended for 1200-2000 players
seeking for a game collection, especially those who would like to improve their
understanding in middlegame pawn-structures. Giddins tried to update Chernev's
Most Instructive Chess Games but he outdid his teacher. Rating: 9/10" -
