Now it becomes clearer to us the significant difficulties that a chess player must overcome in order to achieve victory over strong opponents. The road to chess victory is littered with thorns, full of traps and tangled labyrinths, and contains many dead-end paths.

The main task of this book is to define the modern concept of Chess Strategy, as well as to give a detailed and comprehensive analysis of it. This should improve our perceptive of chess victory, as well as a full-fledged understanding of chess in general. It seems to us that this book can be very useful for two groups of our readers: Firstly, this is a group of motivated chess players and their mentors, coaches, admirers, and relatives. A more complete knowledge and understanding of Chess Strategy can be of great help to such chess players to accelerate in achieving chess victories in the most efficient way. Secondly, this is a group of chess amateurs, for whom basic knowledge of Chess Strategy can be very useful for developing their Life Strategy; since each person is forced to solve strategic issues throughout his/her life.
