WINNER: ChessCafe.com 2011 Book of the Year!
Steve Goldberg, ChessCafe:
“A thoroughly delightful book, full of incredible examples that remind us how challenging chess can be.”
KARL Magazine:
“The many training exercises make ‘Invisible Chess Moves’ a tactics training book and, what’s more, numerous games convey the beauty of chess.”
Richard Vedder, Schakers.info:
“Why is a certain move an ‘invisible chess move’? It can be for all sorts of reasons. I don’t know that it is all founded on scientific research, but based on my experience I can understand very well what they mean.”
GM Karsten Müller, author of ‘Bobby Fischer: The Career and Complete Games’:
“Highlights the limitations of the human mind and categorises the typical sources of mistakes like missing diagonal backward queen moves. It has many beautiful examples with really amazing points, which I had not seen before. A real gem!”
Joe Petrolito, Australasian Chess Magazine:
“An entertaining and instructive book on an aspect of tactics that is not usually covered.”
GM Boris Gelfand:
“I highly enjoyed going through the book and solving the positions. Many original ideas!”
Lubomir Kavalek, The Huffington Post:
“An outstanding book.”
Hans Böhm, De Telegraaf:
“In fact, this book is about the price you pay for thinking like a machine, for thoughtlessly following some general rules. Time and again it turns out that sticking to rules of thumb leads to chances missed.”
Yasser Seirawan, four time US Champion:
“An enjoyable and challenging book that will make you redress your competitive play.”
Michael Adams, The Saturday Telegraph:
“The book entertains and improves the tactical vision in equal measures.”
Uwe Bekemann, German Correspondence Chess Association:
“Exercises in the course of each chapter and an extensive test at the end of the book give the reader the opportunity to engage in an organised way with difficult-to-find moves, so&
#160;one can get familiar with the instruction material.”
Ian Marks, ChessSchotland:
“There are lots and lots of games, extracts and exercises all devoted to why we miss moves.”
Luc Winants, former Belgian Chess Champion:
“The authors deserve the highest praise for the idea behind this book. Something quite original, and I enjoyed it enormously.”
B.H.Wilders, Nederlands Dagblad:
“It turns out there are interesting cerebral reasons for overlooking winning moves, like certain geometrical patterns and the aversion to backward moves (..) A unique book.”
British Chess Magazine:
“An interesting attempt to cover new ground (..) All competitors should call here.”
Cecil Rosner, Winnipeg Free Press:
“A thoroughly original and entertaining argument about why chess players overlook simple wins (..) Through a series of tests Neiman and Afek ensure the reader gets the message even more forcefully.”
Europa Rochade Magazine:
“An excellent book that offers rare insights into unknown chess territory.”
