The book contains 230 annotated examples. (Traps and combinations in the opening, middlegame, endgame). The book can be seen as three in one: firstly, it is a collection of various, but often typical traps encountered in the opening, in the middlegame and in the endgame. Secondly, this book is a textbook on tactics, as traps are almost always based on clever tactical strikes. Finally, thirdly, this book can also be a workbook, for this you have to look for tactical solutions possible in the positions on the diagrams yourself, without looking in the text.
