This Under the Surface by Jan Markos is an English-language hardcover chess book that looks beyond raw calculation and focuses on what really matters in a position.
What the book covers
Jan Markos leads the reader towards a deeper understanding of chess. Instead of concentrating only on counting variations, he shows how to identify the key elements in a position, organise your thinking during a game and make decisions more consciously.
The book is aimed at players who want to improve not only their calculation, but also their positional understanding and overall decision-making at the board.
Who it is for
This is a strong choice for ambitious amateurs, club players and anyone who wants to move beyond simple move-counting. It also makes a thoughtful gift for a chess player looking for a more mature perspective on strategy and thought process.
