کتاب Dynamic Pawn Play

"Marovic has obviously been in the company of some of the greatest players and listened carefully to what they had to say ... this book is excellent value and is sure to improve your chess" - Chris Rice, Weekend Chess

How should pawns be used to fight for the centre? How does the central pawn-formation affect planning for both sides? These questions are central to understanding chess, and are the primary subject-matter of this book.

Following on from his successful book 'Understanding Pawn Play in Chess', Drazen Marovic now moves on to dscuss more complex central pawn-structures and their impact on play both in the centre and on the wings. He begins by surveying how the pawn's role in controlling the centre has been developed over the last 150 years, and how this has led to the refinement of concepts such as the 'dynamic' backward pawn and the positional exchange sacrifice. The bulk of the book is devoted to discussions of the main types of centre:
* Open Centre
* Closed/Blocked Centre
* Fixed Centre
* Mobile/Dynamic Centre
