Grandmaster Jacob Aagaard won the British Chess Championship at his first and only attempt. He has received the Guardian, ECF and ChessCafe Book of the Year awards and the FIDE Senior Trainer title.

"With A Matter of Endgame Technique Jacob Aagaard has again proved convincingly that he is one of the best chess authors of the modern times.The book is really 5 books in one and you should really look at the examples carefully and first try to understand them yourself and only afterwards look at Jacob's instructive explanations. He always gets to the heart of the matter and explains clearly why he has selected the example and what is the most important point of it. In this way you will understand the endgame phase much better, which will improve your chess immensely." -- GM Karsten Müller
