{"product_id":"attack-counterattack-in-chess-fred-reinfeld-9781941270622","title":"Attack \u0026 Counterattack in Chess","description":"Another Reinfeld Classic Now in Algebraic Notation! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFred Reinfeld's timeless Attack and Counterattack in Chess starts with the basic premise that White plays to build on the natural initiative that is inherent in having the first move, while Black plays to sap White's divine right to this initiative, only to take it over the moment it is possible. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is neatly divided into two sections: How White manages to make good use of his right to the first move by taking advantage of typical mistakes by Black, and how Black succeeds in challenging that right and taking over the initiative by jumping on blunders by White. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are several points to keep in mind as you peruse the games involved. The first is that this is not an opening book. The examples of play are all built around a complete chess game that came to a logical conclusion based on one player's muffs and the other player's exploitation of those errors. The other point is that the poor moves that are taken advantage of were to some extent based on carelessness or inattention or lack of knowledge but were also set up on purpose by the winning player. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first seven chapters cover how to control the center; how to exploit superior mobility; how to exploit Black's premature opening of the position; how to exploit Black's premature counterattack; How to exploit Black's weakening pawn moves; how to exploit Black's errors of judgement; and how to exploit irregular defenses. All these subjects are covered by a close look at a chess game in which the bungles are followed by their natural punishment \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe last five chapters look at how to seize the initiative as Black; how to play against gambits; how to defend against a powerful attack; how Black can seize the attack; and how to exploit unusual openings. Again, each topic unfolds during a chess game with faulty play by White and its logical destruction by Black. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDevelop and improve your attacking\/counterattacking skills with the 21st-century edition of Reinfeld's Attack and Counterattack in Chess!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fred Reinfeld\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 194127062X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941270622\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Russell Enterprises\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/22\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.80w x 0.30d","brand":"Fred Reinfeld","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43937721680127,"sku":"9781941270622","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_8f63873c-7245-43fc-95b2-91641f14cb36.jpg?v=1681431637","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/attack-counterattack-in-chess-fred-reinfeld-9781941270622","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
