The defense and the counterattack are subjects that are very bound to the attack, reason why the writing of this book is the logical continuation, or conclusion, of the previous one, " The art of the attack ".
It is obvious that, as important as to attack accurately, it is to defend itself with equal skill. The best players of all the times have dominated both arts, nevertheless there are Champions of the World whose name is strongly associate to the defense, like Tigran Petrosian, or to the defense and counterattacks like Emanuel Lasker.
This book has a structure similar to the volume on the attack. The chapters contain several demonstrative games of certain strategic subjects.
The book consists of 7 chapters:
- 1. Lasker, the teacher of the defense and counterattacks.
- 2. Premature repulsion of an attack.
- 3. To give back " blow by blow".
- 4. Regrouping of the defense.
- 5. Preventive thought.
- 6. Simplification and delivery of material.
- 7. Three memorable fights.
Like in my previous books, during many parts of the book it will find questions before the key play, can simply take it as rhetorical questions, like previous step to the answers and explanations that soon appear, and thus possibly learn new things.
After finalizing one or several chapters will be exercises, of varied complexity, with the subjects treated in them. The reader will find a total of 58 exercises to work and to apply the learned concepts.
