Description:

This is the fourth in the series of phenomenally successful training manuals by Mark Dvoretsky, the world's leading trainer, and his star pupil, Artur Yusupov. In this volume they instill players with an understanding of positional features which will persist, and confer an advantage on one side or the other once the dynamism has left the position, and judgement day approaches.This is no dry middlegame textbook. The authors and the contributors, which include world-class grandmasters Bareev and Kramnik, are keenly aware of the need for over-the-board success, and stress the features of positional play most relevant to the practical struggle.

Excellent positional judgement can be learned - by this and other works on positional structure and how to enhance yours (or repair yours at the expense of your opponent's structure...).

another classic, will live a long time as the lessons can be applied to many games.
