School of Chess Excellence 3: Strategic Play

This third volume in Mark Dvoretsky’s course is devoted to questions of strategy, and is aimed at improving the reader’s positional understanding. The author also examines a number of positions that lie on the boundary between the middlegame and endgame.

As in the other books of the series, he uses examples from his own games and those of his pupils, together with original analyses of episodes from other player’s games.
