I think the reader from the bronx is mistaking this book with another. I do agree about the print being difficult to read however the layout is typical for a tactics book. Every chapter is based on a common tactical theme such as pins, forks (knight, queen), skewers, and what have you. Neil starts off each chapter with 2 or 3 very basic examples, but then he jumps right into top grandmaster games. No intermediate tactics which is why I only gave it three stars. The examples are very complex and sometimes require over a page to illustrate why and how it works. Most of the examples are in cluttered middlegames, a couple of which gave me headaches just by looking at them. This book is good for anyone who wants to improve there ability in finding tactics in tough middlegames. To be honest, some of the games are genuinely brilliant in that the tactic seams to be pulled out of thin air. This book is not for anyone rated under 1600 and I think 1700-1900 rated players will benifit the most from it. I like the fact that he gives complete games because it teaches you how to convert a material advantage into a win. Nothing aggrevates me more then an example that leaves you hanging by not giving thorough enough analysis. Don't get me wrong though, this isn't like a Nunn or Dvoretsky epic but it can at times require more work then you might be willing to put in. The work problems are much more simple than the illustrative games but give the reader enough of a challenge so that they learn something. Overall this is a good book and I guarentee that any reader within the ratings listed above will benifit from reading it.
