I'm not finished with it yet, I'm very nearly done though, a few weeks
and it'll have been completely devoured by study, but so far what I've
experienced is of the upmost quality. Andrew Burnett understands the
human quality of chess in a way that I havn't experienced from any
other writer. Furthermore, I can say Mr. Burnett has a few ideas that
I disagree with personally, but nothing disprovable so far. This is a
very nice addition to an experience from an unknown author, it seems
very typical to find garbage in such books. You won't find that here.

Although I'm not finished, I'd qualify this book as a must read for any
player wishing to become a fantastic over the board swindler. The book
overflows with attitude and ideas. Two things difficult to find in a chess
book these days.

Buy it, read it, grow from it.

I read it from cover to cover twice on arrival and now has been put aside until I am able to properly work my way though it(and hopefully by then I will be playing better chess and it will be at my level). Currently working my way though logical chess move by move.

Your on the right path friend.
