This Boost Your Chess 2: Beyond the Basics is an English-language softcover chess training book for players who already know the basics and want to deepen their understanding of the game. As the second volume in Artur Yusupov’s Beyond the Basics series, it combines clear explanations with exercises that help turn ideas into practical skill.
The book is built around carefully chosen positions, practical guidance and problem sets, so you can test what you have learned straight away at the board. That makes it a useful choice for self-study as well as structured training for club players, juniors and ambitious players who want to organise their knowledge of tactics, positional play and endgames.
What this book covers
Boost Your Chess 2 continues Yusupov’s teaching approach from the earlier volumes in the series. It leads the reader from solid foundations towards more mature, more deliberate chess thinking, using selected examples to highlight important ideas before checking understanding through exercises.
This is not a casual read about chess. It is a working training book for players who want a focused way to improve, with explanation and practice combined in one volume.
