DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1851 edition. Excerpt: ... from the generality of his fellow-men, he attributed the distinction to unwearied diligence and perseverance." How encouraging such remarks to the plain, plodding investigator of science, and what a contrast to the fulsome boastings of a certain French chess-player of the last age, and the ridiculous laudations of certain of his admirers! Empiricism always precedes theory, but the result of a due recognition of principles will be the induction of laws, and their substitution for the uncertain rides of experience. Many and just are the complaints of the insufficiency of the directions for the practice of chess. Tis true we are conducted through certain openings and pointed to a variety of paths, but, being left to make our own selection, it is not surprising that we should often find ourselves pursuing a devious course, and at best only brought back to the point whence we started, like bewildered travellers in their gyrations through a fog without compass, to commence our journey anew. Contrast the possibilities, probabilities, conditions, and uncertainties of empiricism with the truthfulness and universal applicability of science. Read over the exceedingly vague maxims, and often impracticable rules of experience, and consider the exactness of the indications for the fulfilment of a known law. Imagine, if you can, the possession of what you are told are requisite qualities-- courage and self-possession, without a knowledge of the foundation on which they should rest. Contrast the difficulty and doubt attending the mentally performed experiment, as we are further told is sometimes necessary, of twenty or more moves, with the confidence inspired by a knowledge of the certain power, unerring tendency, and ultimate triumph of principle....

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe way a beginner develops into a strong chess player closely resembles the progress of the game of chess itself. This popular idea is the reason why many renowned chess instructors such as former World Champions Garry Kasparov and Max Euwe, emphasize the importance of studying the history of chess. Willy Hendriks agrees that there is much to be learned from the pioneers of our game. He challenges, however, the conventional view on what the stages in the advancement of chess actually have been. Among the various articles of faith that Hendriks questions is Wilhelm Steinitz's reputation as the discoverer of the laws of positional chess. In The Origin of Good Moves Hendriks undertakes a groundbreaking investigative journey into the history of chess. He explains what actually happened, creates fresh perspectives, finds new heroes, and reveals the real driving force behind improvement in chess: evolution. This thought-provoking book is full of beautiful and instructive ‘new’ material from the old days. With plenty of exercises, the reader is invited to put themselves in the shoes of the old masters. Never before has the study of the history of chess been so entertaining and rewarding.
