French Advance
Tony Kosten
Everyman Chess
, 1998
A must read for French Advance players (Black or White)
Tony Kosten has always done a great job in writing books on chess, and this one is no different. For those that play the French Defense as black, like me, this book is a great way to get a more detailed, theoretical knowledge of the Advance Variation. I would ...
Easy Guide to the Najdorf
Tony Kosten
Everyman Chess
, 1999
Excellent Repertoire Book
This book covers all of White's major responses and does a very good job of providing a workable Black repertoire. I especially liked his recommendation against 6. Bg5 (7...Nc6!?), sidestepping the voluminous theory of the Poisoned Pawn, Polugaevsky, Main Line etc. ...

The Latvian Gambit Lives!
Tony Kosten
Batsford
, 2001
Well, maybe a better term would be "undead"
This is a fine chess book on how to play the Latvian Gambit (1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 f5), for either side. In my opinion, the Latvian Gambit is not sound. I think of all Black defences to 1 e4, it may be the one that maximizes White's play. Still, you have a Right to play ...
The Dynamic English : The aggresive player's guide to a traditional chess opening
Tony Kosten
Gambit Publications
, 1999
Best repertoire book
The Dynamic English is the best repertoire book for White that I have seen. Of course, it cannot cover every variation in great depth due to space considerations, but it's clear, easy to remember, not likely to be "refuted" ever since it does not depend on one sharp ...

Latvian Gambit (Openings)
Tony Kosten
Henry Holt & Co (P)
, 1995
A Delightful Surprise
The Latvian Gambit is the sort of kooky opening about which minor masters love to write creepy little pamphlets. Well, the author is no minor master (he's a GM, in fact) and this is no creepy little pamphlet, but, rather a carefully prepared monograph on an opening so ...
New Ideas in the Nimzo-Indian Defence (Batsford Chess Library)
Tony Kosten
Henry Holt & Co (P)
, 1994
Very Nicely Done
This 267 page volume published in 1994 is one of Kosten's finest works. It probably would be best though to get a more general work on the Nimzo-Indian before embarking on this one. The move order (1.d4 Nf6, 2.c4 e6, 3.Nc3 Bb4) is easy to understand and allows Black ...
Winning Endgames (Crowood Chess Library)
Tony Kosten
Crowood Press
, 1987
It is in the endgame that the hard-won advantages from earlier play are either converted into a win or dissipated to produce a draw or worse. In Winning Endgames, Tony Kosten illustrates how to take stock of a particular position at the beginning of the endgame stage, how to identify the correct strategy, and how to exploit it effectively. With ...

Winning With the Philidor (Batsford Chess Library)
Tony Kosten
Henry Holt & Co (P)
, 1992
Great book about a good defence
I'm playing the Philidor for a couple of years with the advices of Mr. Kosten in his remarkable book. I NEVER get out of the opening with a disadvantage! Philidor is in my opinion one of the most underestimated defences and it is very well covered in this book. Even ...

The Guilford Press
, 1992
A product of many years' work by researchers at the renowned Yale Substance Abuse Research Center, this volume constitutes a comprehensive resource on cocaine. Unusually coherent for an edited book, the volume's chapters reflect the contributors' long collaboration in making significant contributions to the field. The CLINICIAN'S GUIDE covers the ...
