Steve Giddins has chosen 50 supremely instructive games - some old, some new, and including many that few readers will have seen before. He has annotated these games in detail from a modern perspective, explaining the useful lessons that can be learnt from them, while avoiding the harmful dogma that characterized many older works of this type.

Giddins writes in a highly accessible down-to-earth style that appeals to club players seeking to improve their understanding of practical chess.
