Books, Manuscripts
Jeremy Silman takes the student on a journey through his own mind and returns him to the chess board with a wealth of new-found knowledge and the promise of a significant gain in strength. Most amateurs possess erroneous thinking processes that remain with them throughout their chess lives. These flaws in their mental armour result in stinging defeats and painful reversals. Silman wrote down the thoughts of his students while they played actual games, analysed them, and catalogued the most common misconceptions that arose.
