Maurice Ashley Presents 'How To Reassess Your Chess' On Chessable
One is perhaps the greatest American chess author, and the other the greatest American chess presenter. Now, only on Chessable, you can learn from late IM Jeremy Silman's renowned classic, How To Reassess Your Chess, in a very special five-star course presented by the one and only GM Maurice Ashley.
IM Silman wrote more than 35 books, and none of them are more important than How To Reassess Your Chess. The book was originally published in 1986, with the fourth and final edition appearing in 2010, and to this day is a top choice of learners and coaches everywhere. Generations of amateur American chess players learned all about how to use imbalances, psychology, and much more from Silman's unique insights delivered in a trademark conversational style.
GM Ashley has more than three decades of experience presenting chess games, tournaments, and material as a commentator, presenter, coach, and teacher. He has hosted and commentated on world championships and top tournaments. There is no one out there better equipped to help you get the most out of How To Reassess Your Chess, which is one of his favorite chess books of all time.
Together, they make a combination you won't want to miss! In this course, you will be able to follow along with the book and do all of its exercises interactively, directly in the Chessable interface, and all of it accompanied by Ashley's always-inspired guidance.
