I do not know what is exactly what part I was not clear, so I will rephrase.
The sentence should be connected to the paragraph before.

Iwrote
"I understand. Chess books have always centered around "chess" and not around
the "players". The books that might come close to what you want could
be "Training for the tournament player" by Dvoretsky et al.
"Improve your Chess Now!" By J. Tisdall and a little less "Secrets of
Practical Chess" by J. Nunn..."

So I rephrase it
"However, the Russian school had their methods for teaching kids and we
have seen the results. They taught thinking about the training of the players
and not only chess. A little bit about his methods can be peeked on Dvoretsky's
books. Their success tells me that the correct way is teaching how to train
rather than teaching chess by itself, which is what you were asking for."

I hope it is clearer. At least is longer :-)
