CHESS COACH - VLADIMIR BARSKY KARTONIERT (TB)

A LIFE DEDICATED TO CHESS AND ITS PLAYERS This remarkable book is a tribute to a man who is
probably the greatest chess coach of all time. Mark Dvoretsky was a fascinating  intelligent 
honest  decent  hard-working and good-natured man who dedicated his life to chess and its
players. When Dvoretsky started coaching after a fairly successful career as a player  he
became a kind of doctor who could quickly spot what his students needed help with. He made them
better chess players but also better people. In this book  not only his most famous students
Artur Yusupov and Sergey Dolmatov explain what made Dvoretsky so special  but also former World
Champions such as Garry Kasparov  Vishy Anand  Veselin Topalov and Magnus Carlsen  and many
others. In addition to a wealth of delightful and often touching stories  Chess Coach contains
39 of Dvoretsky's games  which show what a strong player he was. They have been analysed by
Dvoretsky himself and by many of his former students. Several interviews and articles complete
this colourful compilation. One of Dvoretsky's own most famous books was called For Friends and
Colleagues - as Garry Kasparov writes in his extensive foreword  this book is a worthy reply
'From Friends and Colleagues'. Mark Dvoretsky (1947-2016) was known as ?the strongest
International Master in the world' in the mid-1970s when he decided to pursue a career as a
chess trainer. His students Artur Yusupov and Sergey Dolmatov became World Championship
Candidates. A meticulous chess analyst  Dvoretsky wrote many highly acclaimed books  his most
famous being Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual. He became so popular as a coach that dozens of
world-class players repeatedly sought his advice.
