Experienced chess trainer Valeri Beim explians, with hundreds of wonderfully clear examples, when intuition comes into play, why some players have better intuition than others, what the functions of intuition are, and why your intuition gets weaker as you get older.

Each of us has the power of making intuitive decisions, and you will learn how you can train and develop this human gift. With sparkling tales about Fischer, Carlsen, Tal and other greats in chess and instructive examples of practical play, this is a thought-provoking, yet highly accessible work.
