Este material nunca ha aparecido en la lengua inglesa anteriormente, y representa la selección de artículos mensuales que Franco ha escrito por un cuarto de un siglo en revistas especializadas de lengua española, revisado y vuelto a inspeccionar para este libro.

Es un entrenador experimentado de ajedrez, su pupilo más notable es Paco Vallejo, ahora uno de los mejores grandes maestros del mundo, a quien él enseñó desde 1995 a a 1999. GM Kavalek - Washington Post "An Impressive Book
Readers unfamiliar with the works of Zenon Franco have plenty of catching up to do. The grandmaster from Paraguay, who now lives in Spain, wrote three excellent books for Gambit Publications. After Chess Self-Improvement and The Art of Attacking Chess, Franco recently came up with Grandmaster Secrets: Counterattack! His discussion of the delicate subject on how to bounce back from difficult positions is both enjoyable and instructive. One can still learn a lot from Emanuel Lasker's tenacity in defense and José Raul Capablanca's art of simplification, but examples of modern players, such as Kramnik and Carlsen, are also presented. Overall, it is a great book for tournament players." - GM Lubomir Kavalek, Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/13/AR2009071301177.html "...the author knows not only his historical but also his contemporary sources, and is able to introduce a topic (not only counterattack, but also psychology in chess) in a subtle but compelling way. ... the book consists of much more than just classic games. It's a guide to all possible ways of countering an attack, such as simplification and prophylaxis, logically ordered by theme, each followed by lots of good exercises. ... a truly interesting book not only for people who want to improve their game, but also for those who simply like classic games analysed by a contemporary grandmaster. ... depth and insightful explanations go hand in hand." - Arne Moll, www.chessvibes.com
