Chess Brilliancy: 300 Historic Games from the Masters Book

This is not a "how to" chess book in terms of tactics or positional play. It is a book about chess strategy in terms of how you should psychologically go about playing the game. There is general advice on what your strategy should be about playing players stronger or weaker than you, how to choose an opening that fits your style and personality, how you should strategize about winning won games, how to create the right frame of mind that enables you to avoid time trouble, and how to embrace your killer instinct--the Tiger within you. Probably best for advanced players, but there is still practical advice for all players to follow. Also, Simon Webb has a very entertaining writing style. This edition is marred by several typos, some in the game moves, so you'll have to figure out the right move from the board position (this is often fairly obvious, even for a patzer like me).
