"Very clearly structured (..) The part on the endgame for me is the highlight (..) All in all this is a wonderful training book which presents important aspects of the game. It will bring all players with an Elo of 1600 or more a strong improvement of their playing strength. I wouldn't be able to put an upper Elo limit on the usefulness of the book, since I myself learnt a thing or two."
