Essence of Chess Strategy Volume 2: Pawn Structures

"With the material that was carefully chosen and analyzed, Boroljub will help you get one step closer to the great Philidor." --GM Dragan Solak

Volume 2 is divided into eight chapters. Unlike Volume 1, it is possible to mix the order in which you study these chapters, but not to study the games within each chapter out of order, since the examples build upon each other in complexity. I suggest that the chapter on "Passed Pawns" should be studied first, because many of the various middlegame structures can ultimately give rise to a passed pawn in the endgame. Work carefully through these examples, because masters use pawn structures even in the opening to predict the properties of endgames which can potentially arise - this is a widely neglected aspect and can be a strong weapon for you!
