Reviews
Emmanuel Neiman breaks down Carlsen's skills into 12 chapters, which cover everything from a discussion of his style down to how Carlsen likes to attack, defend and especially exchange pieces. Neiman challenges his readers to analyze a number of positions of Carlsen's before explaining in some detail what the champ played, and crucially why. The work concludes with plenty of complete games and, overall, is essentially an excellent collection of lessons, not least from the aspects of technique and psychology.

Synopsis
What is it that makes Magnus Carlsen the strongest chess player in the world? Why do his opponents, the best players around, fail to see his moves coming? Moves that, when you replay his games, look natural and self-evident? Emmanuel Neiman has been studying Carlsen's games and style of play for many years. He now presents his findings that will surprise, delight and educate every player, regardless of their level. Neiman explains a key element in the World Champion's play: instead of the 'absolute' best move he often plays the move that is likely to give him the better chances. Carlsen's singular ability to win positions that are equal or only very slightly favourable comes down to this: he doesn't let his opponents get what they hope for while offering them the maximum amount of chances to go wrong. Neiman demonstrates that in areas such as pawn play, piece play, exchanges as a positional weapon and breaking the rules in endgames Magnus Carlsen has brought a new understanding to game. Examining Carlsen's abilities together with Emmanuel Neiman is a delightful way to get to understand chess better and unlock you own potential., What is it that makes Magnus Carlsen the strongest chess player in the world?

He also looks at Carlsen's key qualities that are not directly related to technique. Such as his unparalleled fighting spirit and his ability to objectively evaluate any kind of position and situation. Carlsen is extremely widely read and knows basically everything about chess. What's more, as the most versatile player in the history of the game he is totally unpredictable. 'The Magnus Method' presents a complete analysis of the skills that make the difference. With lots of surprising and instructive examples and quizzes.

    The seller offered a hard-to-find chess book in "like new" condition at an excellent price. He also allowed me to combine the purchase of two books with only one shipping charge. The book arrived several days ahead of schedule, well-packaged and in the condition described. This is a professional bookseller from whom I look forward to purchasing more books from his outstanding chess book collection in the near future!
