The Fundamentals | Chess Evolution 1 | Artur Yusupov
"Chess Evolution 1” is the third book in the “Fundamentals” series.
Artur Yusupov's esteemed nine-part training series is meticulously crafted to elevate chess enthusiasts from foundational concepts to advanced mastery.
The series is divided into three levels, and there are three books for each level:
-
- Fundamentals (Orange books): Aimed at players rated under 1500.
- Beyond the Basics (Blue books): Targeted at players rated under 1800.
- Mastery (Green books): For those rated under 2100.
The various topics – Tactics, Strategy, Positional Play, Endgames, Calculating Variations, and Openings – are spread evenly across the nine volumes, giving readers the chance to improve every area as they work through the books.
- Each chapter presents a specific theme, accompanied by exercises and detailed solutions
- Yusupov emphasizes a hands-on approach to studying to promote retention and understanding rather than rote memorisation
The Build Up Your Chess series won the prestigious Boleslavsky Medal from FIDE (the World Chess Federation) as the best instructional chess books in the world.

If you can't afford a private instructor, this is the way you want to proceed. You will need to supplement this book with other components, but his series of books will form the backbone - Smithy
