First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 144 pages with diagrams and indexes. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. In this book, the first to focus on these issues, Steve Giddins provides common-sense guidance on one of the perennial problems facing chess-players. He tackles questions such as: whether to play main lines, offbeat openings or 'universal' systems; how to avoid being 'move-ordered'; how to use computers; if and when to depart from or change your repertoire. Giddins argues that from novice to grandmaster, a player's basic task when choosing a repertoire is the same: he needs to select openings that suit his playing style and that he can play with confidence. The repertoire should not require more memory work and study than he is capable of, or has time for. The book is rounded off with a look at the use of 'role models' and an investigation of the repertoires of leading players past and present. Condition: Light edge wear with gently bumped corners else very good.

Winning by moving backward! Redeployment of pieces &usually Knights and Bishops) have helped champions such as Capablanca, Fischer, and Karpov to win many games. Most recently it was noted there were backward moves in the first 5 games of the match between Kasparov and Deeper Blue. Reuter (a senior master from Texas) charts ten types of strategies: redeploy and then attack; maneuvering; defense and then attack; forced redeployment; redeployment in the heat of battle; the back rank lineup; long range planning; the rook lift; and unusual redeployments. How redeployment figures into openings, the middlegame, and the endings is also discussed. Computers and their abilities for coming up with backward moves is also detailed in 60 exercises which humans are urged to take. Condition: Light edge wear else very good.
