Reviews
This is a well written book and definitely accessible to club players. This is a chess book to read rather than one to flick through for in search of opening novelties. Dlugy's love of chess shines clearly through and this should act as an inspiration to readers. Sean Marsh, Chess Magazine, June 2017., I'm sure that this is the type of book I would have loved as a kid. So much varied content, lots of opening ideas, exciting games and anecdotes about encounters with big names of chess. I thoroughly enjoyed it! GM Matthew Sadler, New In Chess Magazine 05/2017 - 4 stars rated., I absolutely love this book and I know that I will be returning to it again and again. It is undoubtedly the biggest surprise package out of all the new titles covered in the present column. FM Carsten Hansen, American Chess Magazine 09/2017 - 5 stars rated.
Synopsis
'Grandmaster Insides' takes you into the inner world of Maxim Dlugy, as he recounts and analyses what a young player went through to become a champion and what areas of development are important for the self-improvement as a chess player., 'Grandmaster Insides' takes you into the inner world of Maxim Dlugy, as he recounts and analyzes what a young player went through to become a champion and what areas of development are important for self-improvement as a chess player. As the highest rated player in the world in the age group of 15 and until he became World Junior Champion at 20, Maxim has an ideal vantage point from which to recount the exploits of a talented young player. He became the highest rated blitz player in the world, won numerous International tournments and even tied for 1-4th place in the first World Rapid Championship in Mazatlan, while missing becoming a World Championship Candidate when he was 19 by half a point. Dlugy covers important topics: preparation for your opponent, match play and the search for the objective truth in chess, taking the examples from his own career. His games and interaction with World Chess Champions will give the reader a deeper look at some of the best players in history such as Tal, Smyslov, Spassky, Karpov, Kasparov, Kramnik and even Magnus Carlsen.

    There were some minor creases/warping in the cover and since the book was packaged in a cardboard box with extra packing materials to minimize potential damage in shipping, the condition of the cover was not caused by any USPS materials handling machines, but it still arrived in Very Good condition.
