Understanding chess tactics

Weteschnik, Martin2006
Books, Manuscripts
When the author started working as a trainer in his local chess club, he quickly realised that even the stronger club players had great weaknesses in their tactical play and that simply asking them to solve a huge number of puzzles did not fix the problem. This book was written to solve this problem. 'Chess is 99% tactics' is an old saying. This may be an exaggeration, but even the remaining 1% still depends on tactics. When Martin Weteschnik started working as a trainer in his local chess club, he quickly realised that even the stronger club players had great weaknesses in their tactical play. He also discovered that simply asking them to solve a huge number of puzzles did not fix the problem. These players clearly needed a good book, but when Weteschnik looked for it he found nothing suitable, so he decided to write it himself. But Weteschnik was not completely satisfied with the book and decided to restructure and rewrite it completely.
