Reader’s reviews:
Very good stuff! ... There is a phenomenal amount of rich material in this book ... Dvoretsky's Analytical Manual is a magnificent piece of work ... It gets my highest recommendation for those 2200 and above - From Jeremy Silman's review at JeremySilman.com
You do not buy Dvoretsky's books to feel good about your chess. You buy them for a mental workout and improve your calculation and understanding of chess strategic concepts. You cannot do better than Dvoretsky and Aagaard for the aspiring professional player. While much work is needed, the time is certainly well spent - B Logan
