Premesso che NON condivido l'idea di fondo, in quanto ritengo impossibile separare l'aspetto tecnico da quello storico- culturale negli Scacchi, tutto quello che posso fare è dare l'elenco dei libri in mio possesso in formato PDF (e dunque scaricati gratis in Rete). Non posso, invece, fare una scelta di lettura tra questi in quanto ritengo questione di gusti personali: ad esempio, il Chicco-Porreca (letto anche in versione cartacea quando ero giovane) è, in my opinion, scadente. I libri sulla Scuola Cinese li ho anche letti (di uno in particolare l'ho citato anche in un video che ha avuto particolare successo su Youtube, dato che parlava di una bambina cinese...).

Ecco la LISTA, che può offrire qualche spunto. Contiene anche BIOGRAFIE di scacchisti famosi (ho studiato tutte le partite di Alekhine, Botvinnik, Fischer eccecc.).
