California Chess Journal - Volume 1 1986-1987
This is essentially a book on chess history, showing how different styles of chess play became popular and flourished and then faded in popularity, such as for example the Hyper-Modern Style of play that became ''All the Rage'' in the 1920s and 1930s.

The Development of Chess Style
Alexander Koblents was the trainer of one of the most famous combative players ever, Tal. He is therefore excellently qualified to write a book on this subject. This is not an attempt to define a combination but a practical book from which the reader is expected to examine and eventually create his own combinations.
