Chess Tactics from Scratch

"Chess is 99 per cent tactics" goes an old saying. Some might disagree, but anyone who has seen his strategic masterpiece destroyed by tactical flaws will agree that even the remaining 1 per cent depends on tactics. In this book experienced trainer Martin Weteschnik provides expert guidance on how to improve your chess tactics. Weteschnik assumes no prior knowledge from the reader and systematically analyses the elements of tactics and logical thinking techniques. By the end of the book the reader will have the tools to be a deadly tactician. The first edition is hailed as a "modern classic". This expanded and updated edition improves on the older book in numerous ways, including 300 test positions and two entirely new chapters.
