Book Reviews of Chess Tactics for Champions: A step-by-step guide to using tactics and combinations the Polgar way
Book Review: A girl chess player . . . ? You betcha!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the only chess book I have ever seen that was written by a woman.
She has impressive credentials and has written a book that does not give a great deal of advice, but let's the reader discover for herself how to evaluate chess positions and through sound tactical reasoning, become a better player or even as the title suggests, a champion. The book mostly comprises a great number of puzzles to be solved to better one's position,
advantange in manpower or to put your opponent in indefensible positions.
Don't buy it if you're not a "good" chess player.
