HOW TO IMPROVE FASTER ?

@chgreg
According to what I read at a customer review the 4th edition doesn't have the endgame stuff the 3rd edition has. There might be other reasons why the 3rd edition is better. Perhaps the brilliant CafeMorphy is the person to ask.

"...Do not concern yourself with openings..."

Yes. And no. Because unfortunately the game starts with the opening. Therefore a seeker of chess wisdom should have some basic solid concept/plan how to begin a game.

well you're very welcome sir! I guess you just never know what user will end up being a plus in your life huh ;)
You won't regret that book, enjoy!

@chgreg
I just gave the 4th edition a quick look and it seemed to me that Silman tried to improve on his classic and ended up pulling a George Lucas :)

Yes , I've been told to analyze my games many times. I do analyze some of them and look at my mistakes .Thanks for your advice. I'll definetely try to play less and longer games.
