But for today's Grandmaster the "brilliancy" has become stock-in-trade, simply another weapon in his chess arsenal. In fact, these modern tacticians produce masterpieces worthy of the Immortal Game each and every year. How is this possible?

Each position is analytically dissected, as the Shamkovich/Cartier team breaks down the combination into this component parts. Learn to follow advanced tactical operations by grouping related ideas into categories like Clearance, X-ray, Attraction, Back Rank or Diversion. These vitals themes are, of course, crossindexed to further aid study.
