Time and space are modes by which we think... – Albert Einstein
Every chess player knows that our beloved game is a spatial one, but also a time-dependent one.
These two factors are often intertwined. The side which controls more space usually has the luxury of time necessary to build up an attack and storm the enemy defenses.
And if you were always struggling with these abstract concepts, we've got you covered.
Learn all about the concepts of time and space in chess with the help of the latest Chess Informant book nowavailable on Chessable:
Pawns, Time and Space in Modern Chess .
Pawn chains and structures as the core concept of chess strategy
Legendary French master Francois Andre Philidor famously remarked that
Pawns are the soul of chess. And even when dealing with complex, advanced concepts of space and time, pawns still remain at the core of the game.
Without pawns, it is impossible to control the center and get the desirable space advantage.
Without long pawn chains, it is impossible to lock the position and get enough
time for decisive maneuvering leading to deadly attacks.
This is why this book takes a deep dive into the basic concepts behind pawn play. Teaches you everything you should know about different pawn chains and structures.
And explains how principles of pawn play affect dynamic and spatial elements present in every chess game!
