is there any book about endgame drawing techniques?
Sort:
Reuben fines chess endings is a good book!
"Tragicomedy in the Endgame - Instructive Mistakes of the Masters" maybe?
I once saw a book about the technique for drawing a dragon, but that does not seem to be what you want.

It is possible there is, but the endgame books I've read (Silman, Dvoretsky, "Fundamental Chess Endings", among others) typically incorporate those themes when dealing with more general endings. Specific techniques, as you call them, can't be applied to every position; it's great to know them, but it's going to be hard to escape with the Bishop and wrong Rook pawn draw when the pawn is in the center of the board.
Totally agree. Learn the 'winning' techniques, and you also learn how to save lost endgames against non-best play. By learning endgame play, you'll subconsciously make better decisions in the middlegame.

There's one book, '101 Chess Endgame Tips' by Steve Giddins, which may actually be something along the lines that you're looking for (although clearly equally applicable to the side trying to win).

Most of the good endgame books demonstrate examples of drawing when a Pawn down by doing things like achieving The Opposition in K vs K + P endgames and The Philidor Position in K + R vs K+ R + P endgames. Jesus de la Villa's 100 Endgames You Must Know does, in my limited experience, the best job of explaining the general features of the positions required to achieve draws - or wins - instead of just rattling off a series of moves you must make from a given example position.
On the other hand, if you know what your opponent needs to do to win, you also know what you need to do to prevent him from reaching such a position.

Like opposite colored bishops, fortress, a and h pawns and that kind of stuff.
