Targeting Methods (Anatomy of Chess Combinations) (Russian Edition)

This book is the first volume out of five dedicated to analysis of chess tactics. The book is written in Russian but one need not understand Russian to find it useful. This book contains over 3,000 training problems for quick development of tactical vision. All five volumes present over 20,000 diagrams for analysis and training purposes. In the same way that molecules consist of atoms, chess combinations consist of elementary tactical methods. Developed by the author, these classifications of elements of chess tactics and analysis of their specific properties allow the lover of this complicated game to move from analysis to synthesis. In other words, readers who study Renko’s new order of tactical methods, developed over a 30 year period, will discover they are able to visualize during a chess competition unexpected and complex combinatorial ideas.
