Think Like a Super-GM is a unique collaboration combining the chess insights of an elite grandmaster with a scientific investigation into thinking at the chess board.40 chess puzzles were shown to a panel of players ranging from occasional club players up to Super-GM and co-author Michael Adams. Researcher Philip Hurtado recorded not only the moves chosen, but also the detailed thought processes of every player in order to shed light on the mystery as to what exactly defines superior chess strength.This book offers a unique opportunity for readers to not only solve the puzzles, but also compare their thinking to that of club players, strong amateurs, IMs, GMs and Michael Adams himself. With an additional Bonus Puzzle section and a fascinating Eyetracker experiment showing where different players focused their attention on the board, this is a chess improvement book like no other.

"This book does have a number of original features that make the solving experience much more interesting than just glancing at the solution, feeling happy or irritated and moving on to the next one. Foremost among these is the possibility to compare your thoughts with that of similar-strength players… The other key factor is the quality of Mickey's explanations of the puzzles, which is outstanding – simply a pleasure to read!I thoroughly recommend this book. Working through the examples seriously in a concentrated manner will benefit players of any strength, and once you've completed the puzzles there's still a wealth of learning to be drawn from Mickey's comments, and by reflecting on the solving processes captured by Hurtado. Great stuff! 5 stars!" - GM Matthew Sadler, New in Chess
