In The Power of Minor Pieces, former World Championship candidate and celebrated chess author Jan Timman shows ways through the fascinating richness of the middlegame. Based on countless examples that he encountered during his eventful career, Timman deals with topics such as "strong knight versus bishop" and "the dominant bishop pair".
\r\nHow would you proceed if you came out of the opening with a strong knight and your opponent was left with a bad bishop?\r\nAnd is the bishop pair really as strong as they say?\r\nAnd how can you make the most of this advantage? Or how can you limit the damage by reversing the roles?\r\nWith his clear style and practical approach, Timman follows in the footsteps of his teachers Max Euwe and Michael Botvinnik. The Power of Minor Pieces is a book that will delight both confused beginners and experienced club players.\r\n246 pages, 2006, hardcover.
