This Mastery Series by Artur Yusupov is a set of three English-language softcover chess training books for players who want structured study and a broader understanding of the game. Known as the “green books”, this third level of Yusupov’s training programme combines explanations with exercises, so the material is easy to work through and revisit.
What’s included
The set brings together the three books that complete the Mastery level of Artur Yusupov’s programme:
- Build Up Your Chess: Mastery 3 – the first volume in the Mastery 3 sequence, introducing more advanced themes through selected positions, commentary and tasks.
- Boost Your Chess: Mastery 3 – the second volume, which develops the material from the first book and moves on to the next training topics.
- Chess Evolution: Mastery 3 – the final volume in the level, bringing the whole stage of study to a close.
The Mastery books are part of Yusupov’s 10-volume training programme and continue on from the earlier Fundamentals and Beyond the Basics levels. Together, they are designed to develop different areas of chess in a balanced way.
How the books are used
Each chapter focuses on a specific chess theme. Yusupov first explains the idea through carefully chosen examples, then checks understanding with a set of exercises. That makes the books useful not just for reading, but for regular training at the board. They suit ambitious players, coaches and club players who want to work through the game systematically rather than focus on only one topic.
