  Kotov's chapter on how to attack when kings have castled on opposite sides or the same is simply a must-read.  Keres discusses how to defend difficult positions and how to analyze adjourned positions.  Fascinating reading by very strong masters.

  One of the best books on the middle game. The book is written by two strong players Kerse and Kotov. Kotov focuses on the attack, what to do when both kings castle kingside, castle on opposite sides, pawn storms, ect. He even writes a chapter on the different types of pawn positions, open, closed, moblile, ect giving examples how to handle them. Keres writes a chapter on defence and a chapter on analysis wich can be over the heads of beginners.

  Metacheck when I read this book it was in 1992 or 1993 and it was in descriptive as  I recall. But that was a long time ago.
