"Winning Chess Tactics" is the follow-up book in Yasser Seirawan's Winning Chess series. WCT picks up where the sections on tactics in "Play Winning Chess" left off. Not too surprisingly, WCT details more subtle or less obvious points about the tactical issues of chess.
The
author continues the discussion of the usual suspects such as forks,
pins, skewers, and so on, and then explains specific subtypes of these
tactics. For instance, in the chapter on pins, Seirawan explains the
concept of both absolute pins and relative pins.
An important theme in this book is the notion of combinations and sacrifices. While PWC spoke to the basic tactics, WCT explains how to produce positions in which the basic tactics can be used. For instance, you may recognize on the board the potential for a devastating fork, but what do you need to do to actually attain that position? The text develops the topic of combinations, and how they can be used to reduce the game position to a known pattern, which forces an opponent into a losing position. This amounts to the use of sacrifices, decoys, et al. to produce an advantageous board position. From Book Review: Winning Chess Tactics - Chess.com
