Reviews

This book is primarily for chess enthusiasts! For those who love the game of chess, sacrifices come flying, and before you know it, two hours have passed. It reads like a novel, and the analyses are accessible. But even the eternal student can make use of it. Personally, I've learned a bit more about the Dragon. It's not a one hundred percent study book, of course; you understand that too. This is primarily a biography with many instructive games. Thinkers Publishing House puts itself back on the map and can compete with publishers like Everyman Chess, Russell Enterprises, New in Chess, Quality Chess, in short, they're on the map and rightfully so. I am proud of this Belgian publishing house, and we can expect much more from them in the future! Then some more good news: This book is Volume 1, so a second volume is in the works. And God knows how far he would have gone in a friendlier environment. We'll never know. Furthermore, I understand that this book is only available in hardcover? It doesn't matter; it's worth every penny, and I eagerly await Volume 2. Dutch chess journalist Oliver De Hert, Schaaksite, March 2024.

This is his fifth book for 'Thinkers Publishing'. Born in Belgrade in 1973, Ana Velimirovic-Zorica exhibited a fondness for mathematics from an early age. She learned numbers and addition much earlier than letters and reading. Ana graduated from the Mathematics High School in Belgrade with excellent results. Following that, she pursued her education at the Faculty of Mathematics, specializing in Theoretical Mathematics and Applications. During her undergraduate studies, she maintained an average of 9.00, and during her master's studies, she achieved an average of 9.20. Mathematics has always been and continues to be her passion, although unfortunately, it is not her profession. Nevertheless, she has found a way to stay connected to it by successfully preparing students for admission to technical faculties at the University of Belgrade, as well as assisting students of the University of Belgrade in their exam preparation. Currently, she is employed as a leading reporting coordinator in the Tax Administration of the Ministry of Finance. In her daily work, she utilizes the latest information technologies. Outside of work, she is a devoted fan of art, sports, and nature. She is happily married and resides in Belgrade.
