This is a seemingly loaded question, but is there a clear book (or better yet downloadable pdf/.doc file) that addresses key issues during a game? For example, opening should typically consist of controlling center and developing pieces, but what about all the other ideas, dogmatic or not, regarding play?
While I hope the desire to learn is really there, I am certainly lacking in what route to take along the educational path.
