Chess for Beginners S G P Mariano Stefani

BOOK INTRODUCTIONThis Book is specially designed for those who want to learn how to play chess. Thereis a simple and progressive explanation of all the rules you need to know to play a game of chess. The important thing to progress in chess is not to retain a bunch of variations and openings, but to seek to better understand the stakes of a game. It will not be a question here of learning to calculate all the possible combinations several moves in advance, but of mentally visualizing the future of a game 10 or 20 moves later, almost without calculation. Impossible ? Not really. This is achieved by studying the structure of the game and imagining how the game will evolve, and then change its course in the long term. No need to waste your time learning things by rote or to waste your eyes on complicated chess books. Read the few simple tips that follow and play.
