Every one says get "reasses your chess" but amazon gives "How to Reassess Your Chess: The Complete Chess Mastery Course" and also "Reassess Your Chess Workbook: How to Master Chess Imbalances".

What one do you recommend? 🙂

The workbook is apparently a supplement. I went through the book without the workbook and it made perfect sense.

Agreed...the workbook starts out kind of summarizing the information contained in "How to Reassess", and also contains a couple hundred positions and problems to analyze and solve... along with the solutions, of course...

IMO, the workbook is definitely worth getting, cover price was $19.95...one could find much worse ways to spend one's money, that's for sure

The Amateur's Mind by Silman is also excellent.

I just bought a good chess book on tactics. It's called Killer Chess Tactics. It was AU $55.
