Customer Review:
OK, so my title is a take-off on another
of Chernev's excellent books, but it was this little gem that turned the lights on
in my brain's chess circuitry. Before reading it, I just pushed pieces around without
understanding why. After, I was able to focus on the characteristic strategy of each
opening, find my way around the middle game, and handle an endgame. It's this last
part of the chess puzzle that's most overlooked by beginners, who prefer to concentrate
on their favorite openings. I learned endgames well enough that I was able to lose
points earlier in the game and still pull out a win in the endgame. I was finally
able to beat players I never beat before, and keep beating them!
The games are exciting! I never knew so much deep strategy
went into each move. This book should be everyone's jumping off point in learning
chess. -- Peter Farrell from San Francisco Area, California |

I like to regularly challenge my thinking
and my mind. "Are You as Smart as You Think You Are?" certainly provided
that challenge. The puzzles really made me think and I kept coming back to many of
them several times, before checking the answer key. Mr. Stickles provides hours of
brain stretching entertainment. Keep it up. I'll look forward to your next book.
