‘Grandmaster Insides’ take 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 self-improvements 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 had 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 tournaments and even tied for 1-4 th place in the first World Rapid Championship in Mazatlan. 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, Karpov,
Kasparov, Kramnik and even Carlsen.
Thinkers Publishing wishes you success on your lifelong journey of chess improvement!
