The Chess Tactics Workbook: a preview

I started The Chess Tactics Workbook today. It's 128 pages of problems, organized 6 problems per page. At the pace of 3 pages per day (18 problems), I should be finished in 6 weeks. The problems start with mate in 1 and move up in difficulty to mate in 3 and other combinations. This will be the tactical training that supplements my study of The Amateur's Mind, which I'll begin tomorrow.

Studying isn't as fun as playing. So I will start playing STC games using accounts I have on ICC, FICS and US Chess Live.
