Evgeny Bareev is a well-known Russian grandmaster, coach and author who has won many major chess events and reached number four in the world rankings in 1992.
In this, his first book for Thinkers Publishing, Evgeny investigates the current modern approach to chss. Players sometimes blindly follow rules, restricting themselves to what they have learned without even considering successfully 'breaking' the rules. Stereotypical thinking is a trap which chess players should try to avoid, and in this book Evgeny makes a strong case for creative thinking and ways to leave the well-trodden paths and confuse the opponent with a fresh approach.
