    Bauernschwächen entscheiden in unzähligen Schachpartien über Sieg und Niederlage. Jeder Spieler muß sich im praktischen Kampf wieder und immer wieder mit Bauernschwächen im eigenen und gegnerischen Lager auseinandersetzen. Deshalb kommt der vorliegenden fundamentalen Untersuchung von Bauernschwächen und allen damit zusammenhängenden Problemen höchste Bedeutung zu. Wolfgang Uhlmann, der bekannte Internationale Großmeister, hat seine in langjähriger Spielpraxis gewonnenen Erfahrungen in dieses Buch eingebracht, um für den Leser die Beschäftigung mit der Theorie so gewinnbringend und leicht wie nur irgend möglich zu machen. Anhand von 139 Partien aus der älteren und modernen Meisterpraxis wird das Thema Bauernschwächen erschöpfend abgehandelt. Die Autoren erörtern eingehend die drei Grundformen der Bauernschwächen: den isolierten Bauern, den rückständigen Bauern und den Doppelbauern. Die verschiedenen strategischen Zusammenhänge werden leichtverständlich herausgearbeitet und die davon für beide Spieler stellungsgerechten Pläne abgeleitet. Ausführlich dargelegt sind die engen Beziehungen zwischen Eröffnungssystemen und den Formen von Bauernschwächen. Auf diese Weise erfährt der Schachfreund alles, was er wissen muß, um feindliche Bauernschwächen optimal auszunutzen bzw. eigene Bauernschwächen bestmöglich zu verteidigen. Der Band ist übersichtlich und anschaulich angelegt, daß ihn Schachspieler jeglicher Spielstärke mit Gewinn nutzen können. Jedes Kapitel wird mit allgemeinen Gesichtspunkten zur Bewertung eingeleitet und ist nach sachlichen Gesichtspunkten sehr übersichtlich gegliedert. Über 230 Diagramme erhöhen die Anschaulichkeit. Den Abschluß bilden Partien mit Punktbewertung, so daß die Leser ihren Kenntnisstand und Wissenszuwachs selbst kontrollieren können.
