Zenon Franco - L'art de l'attaque aux échecs

Chess students love a Puzzle Rush. And solving tactics puzzles certainly helps you improve your pattern recognition and will help you find good moves in tournament games. But there is a downside to most tactics puzzles — we always know who is supposed to win!

Chess in real life is different, not just because no one taps us on the shoulder and tells us to look for a tactic. Sometimes tactics work, and sometimes they don't. Sometimes your opponent has a few tricks up their sleeve, too.

This book shows the reality of chess tactics. It explores a chess player's challenges over the board: attack, defense, and counterattack! It exposes the actual give-and-take nature of chess tactics. 224 pages

The author Bruno Dieu is a FIDE Master and became French Correspondence Chess Champion in 2000. He has a rich experience in chess, having participated in various chess tournaments, both over the board and in correspondence.
It's fascinating that he has competed with notable experts and writers on the 1 Nc3, such as Dick Van Geet, Anker Aasum, and Harald Keilhack. The mention of a book being a token of his experience suggests that he has documented his insights and knowledge about this opening.
Overall, this is a most promising exploration for those interested in chess and this specific opening.
We are convinced you will enjoy the chess ride Bruno provided in his excellent researched book. 470 pages

Titre moyennement explicite : on sait bien ce qu'est une contre-attaque dans le domaine sportif, mais c'est moins évident aux échecs. En fait, le livre nous parle plutôt de défense active et d'opportunités à savoir saisir (les titres des chapitres sont, eux, éloquents : Rendre coup pour coup, réfuter les attaques prématurées, pensée prophylactique, regroupement, simplification) La forme est identique aux précédents opus du GMI paraguayen : un choix de parties commentées en détail, sans beaucoup d'effort de synthèse. Bah, on ne peut pas tout avoir !
