Kurzbeschreibung
In chess, a transposition is a known position reached by a different move order than usual -- a less obvious way of getting to somewhere you want to go, leading to confusion for your opponent. Every chess player has a number of them in his arsenal, and they are used most often in openings. There are transpositional tricks in all openings, but this is the first book devoted to them. As the book covers all the key openings variations it can be used by most chess players. The introduction explains what transpositions are and why they're invaluable, followed by 8 chapters discussing transpositions, illustrated by some notorious examples from top-flight matches. Chapters are divided by opening group -- Double e-pawn openings; Sicilian Defense; Other Semi-Open openings; Double e-pawn openings; Indian openings; Other 1 d4 openings; Reti, English, 1 g3. The benefits and drawbacks of each set of move orders are discussed throughout. This is an ideal book for all club players and is written by one of the best chess writers in the world today.

A groundbreaking work - a must for serious players
8. Februar 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
I am not aware of any other book handling the subject of transpositions in chess openings, I suppose Soltis is a pioneer on the subject. The author covers the topic very thoroughly, going through the transpositions in all major openings, KP (Ruy Lopez, King's Gambit etc.), QP (Queen's Gambit, Indian defences), as well as the tricky English, Reti, etc. Whatever opening you use, you will probably find it covered in the book. A very useful work, can save you tons of study time.

Always Pleasure with Soltis' bookds
26. Mai 2008
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Soltis talks to you. He understands the club player's mind. When I read his books I feel he is setting close answering my questions. He wants you to understand chess not memorize it.
Why this book is considered so important to me. If you read other opening books they dump the firt,say, 10 moves of a variation then they start analysing from there relying on their collection of games in their database. But What happens before those 10 moves. what if my opponent play this move, what if he ignores that one. Unfortunately that's what usually happens in my games.
Then this book takes you before you reach a known position to IMs and GMs and let's you know why they get to where they are. Then Gives you some Ideas to divert your opponent from reaching their comfort zone. I'm sure he would have explained many more Ideas specific to each opening if he hasn't to cover all openings in one book.
Actually I wish he would write a book on complex openings such as King's Indian or ruy lopez using same style of talking to the club player.
I wish every opening book author will adopt this style of writing because most of the readers are on the level A class or less.

14. Oktober 2008
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
The author is a Grandmaster (Andrew Soltis) a journalist of many chess magazine, he is notoriuos writer. This Author is one of my favorites modern writers.
This book focus, for club and expert player, or player that has a develomented repertoire.
Fist, not for beginer this book is not for develoment chess skills or teach opening.
This book cover all keys opening variation, also discussed the benefits and drawback of each set move order along the opening. these is a secret weapon for GM player. Like Kramnik with 1, Nf3.
If you are a beginer player, searching stategic approach, leave this book for later, When you prepare your opening and becoming strong club palyer or expert, used this book.
For coaching, this book, helps a lot, but not for childs. I wrote this for any parent or school trainer is reading this review. If any is coaching a team for local, regional or state tournament, this book could help for over U 10 event.
I am strong player, maybe over 2000 USCF, i defeated FIDE MASTER, and i used this book just for search some lines, this book is just for used like a adviser. No more I knew and bought it.
Do not espect more.
I hope this review help you
