Chess Game Tutorial by Lasker – is a classic of chess literature. Unlike many others, it covers a wide range of chess problems. M. Botvinnik wrote: The preparation Lasker for the competition was assisted by his versatility. He had no "taste", not IML style, he did everything equally strongly, equally well – in defense and in attack, in calm positions and violent complications, in the middlegame and in the endgame. The book is multifaceted and multicast. For fans and young chess players – a textbook for more experienced – a guide to creative and athletic growth. Lasker is not so much taught to play, how to think for themselves, including to question the judgment of even the recognized authorities.
