Beskrivning

The most hated cliché in chess is: And the rest is a matter of technique. In A Matter of Endgame Technique Grandmaster Jacob Aagaard deals with one of the few things chessplayers hate even more – losing a winning position. No serious chessplayer is new to the misery of spoiling hours of hard work in a few minutes...A Matter of Endgame Technique offers the second-best happiness – the misfortune of others – as well as deep explanation of the underlying patterns of how and why we misplay winning endgames. At just under 900 pages, this hardcover book is actually six books in one, explaining the technical and practical areas of chess endgames plainly, simply and deeply. Endgame theory is well covered elsewhere; this book is all about technique and devoid of material to memorise.

Recensioner i media

"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
