Highly Original Thinking is GM's Motwani's description of the acronym-based approach he advocates for chess thinking. Those who play H.O.T. chess will build up an armory of mnemonics to help them concentrate all of their powers on key chessboard issues in a systematic way, even in the full heat of battle. After GM Motwani explains how you can adopt this methodical approach to their game, you will automatically give due thought to King safety, pawn structure, etc., and so come to a clear, objective assessment of positions. His ideas even extend to situations beyond the board, and allow you to maximize your strengths in relation to your opponent's. This book includes dozens of Motwani's deeply annotated games, with GM Motwani describing his thought process during the game, and how he uses his unique approach to chess thinking. Paul Motwani is former World Under-17 Champion, and Scotland's first grandmaster. He is world-renowned for his tremendously imaginative chess. H.O.T. Chess is his first book for Batsford.
