Review quote "For those new to chess, or for those who want to improve their game, it is often hard to find a starting point.
I am finally sure that it is not for me. I had the strange feeling while reading this book that I simply was not processing the information.
There is something in my brain that simply doesn't like logical games even if I enjoy reading philosophy or building arguments. It was an utterly frustrating experience.
I am not saying the book is not great, I don't know, because it seems to be beyond my abilities. Mar 11, Caron rated it it was ok.
