This Build Up Your Chess 3: Mastery by Artur Yusupov is an English-language paperback chess training book for players who want to deepen their understanding and reach a higher level of play. As the third volume in the respected Build Up Your Chess series, it takes you from solid fundamentals and intermediate knowledge towards real mastery.
What this book covers
The Yusupov series is structured like a complete training course. Volume one focuses on the basics, volume two develops the material beyond the fundamentals, and volume three: Mastery brings the journey together. Yusupov works through carefully chosen positions, explains the key ideas, and then checks your understanding with a set of exercises.
That structure makes this more than a collection of examples. It is a practical book for independent study: first you learn the theme, then you see it in increasingly demanding positions, and finally you solve the exercises with detailed answers. It is a strong choice for club players, coaches and anyone who wants to train in a clear, organised way.
About the author and his method
Artur Yusupov combines deep tournament experience with a clear teaching style. He is known for presenting complex ideas in a way that is accessible without losing their chess value, and that is exactly what makes this book so useful.
The result is a training book that helps you not only recognise important motifs, but also apply them at the board in a real game.
