Both a fascinating challenge and a great training tool, these tricky tactical problems are not only fun to solve, but great for advanced beginners, intermediate, and expert players to use as tools to improve their game.  Tactics are presented in order of difficulty, so that players can advance from simple to complex positions.  Examples from actual games illustrate a wide range of tactics from the classics right up to the current games.  You'll learn to use pins, single and double forks, double attacks, skewers, discovered and double checks, multiple threat tactics-and other crushing tactics as part of their problem-solving challenges.  Great stuff and fun too!  Illustrations.
