Russia's dominance in modern chess was founded on a successful programme of instruction. This volume and its companion is based on that instruction programme, which should help readers develop from beginner to expert.

Through instructional chapters and practice sections featuring exercise and game situations, the book shows how to advance in the game using the techniques that produced champions.
