Encyclopedia Of Chess Wisdom

How do you get the best out of this book or any chess books?

Reading it?

I puts my books under my pillow and if god wants me to learn I will.

Taking your time is critical, you cant just zoom past the book like your reading Twilight.

You must take your time. Like Borgqueen said.

 lol oh good grief... still believe in the fairy do you ?

Nolaupt the way to read a book is to understand it, study it with a chessboard, guess the next move of the Grandmaster's games especially the one with annotations.

Please don't make fun of my religious beliefs. It's because of them that I always have someone to turn to and can handle a pair of rattlesnakes like nunchukas.

I'll tried not to goldendog.

Read it,study it,try it in games,and...improve.

Goldendog, they are the ones with the fairy tale belief. There is no doubt God exists just evidence that man has been blinded.

It was un-called for what KCO said.

Studying each move is the best way to learn from Chess books. This article by  WGM Natalia Pogonina is definitely worth a read http://www.chess.com/article/view/getting-better-in-chess-critical-mistake-to-avoid

kco is my bud. He was just joshing me and I him.

 Fair enough. Shall I delete the "It was un-called for what KCO said." part of my post?

nah is alright , you have every right to your opinion.

you  mean like "out !" "strike!" in cricket, baseball, tennis etc.?

Burn it , that,s the book, 

And make a offering to  the high king   A ,Nimzowitsch ,

Who are you trying to call out?  That's uncalled for!  Unless you're calling for me.  I'm out.
