i was wondering if you guys evr read this book. the book covers topics such as forks asnd double attacks as well as skewer moves. i just was wondering you guys thoughts

No, I have not read that book yet. I was in a book store the other day and I saw this book on a shelf though -- only skimmed thru. Maybe I should go back and take a second look?

I've read that book. It's a tactics book for beginners to intermediate players. It explains basic tactics in a very nice and logical manner unlike other books. Examples go from very easy to more difficult but not overly diffucult. It should be everybody's 1st or second tactics book. I would highly recommend this book!

Now, if you are looking for a more difficut or advanced book than you should look at other books.

Any advice on more advanced books?

I highly recommend this book.  I found the book difficult at first but soon I was able to get 95% of the problems without looking at the back.  It is definitely a good place to start for tactics training.

Great Book, I read it almost 6 times and my rating went up from 1000 to 1400.  Now I can get any problem in the book in around 5 seconds. Now I let everyone borrow it and everyone else improves.  It truly is a great book.

And she is quite pretty

Unfortunately I haven't went through any other more difficult chess books. I have this book on my wish list "Complete chess workout":

Also, I've been using CT-Art software (it's a software with tactics) and it's definitely very good and challenging! Highly recommended!

It is indeed a good intermediate book, i have a copy myself... very informative.

okay so how would a beginner like myself study this book

I kept it next to my bed and did problems everynight before bed.

Forcing chess moves....Great read. 

Chess Tactics for Champions makes for an excellent second tactics book. As far as books a bit more advanced, Understanding Chess Tactics or Forcing Moves are fine picks.

I need to buy one!
