Riassunto

Chess champion Garry Kasparov wrote a bestselling series of books called My Great Predecessors, ascribing his victories to lessons learned from the games of earlier champions. Now, in a humorously titled ?addition” to the series, Tibor Károlyi and Nick Aplin turn Kasparov’s chess wisdom on its head by analyzing 70 games he lost! Behind the good-natured humor is the important chess idea that every strategic or tactical principle has its exceptions, and the win often comes to the player who knows when standard procedure doesn’t apply. It’s a delightfully original commentary on modern chess theory, offering equal parts entertainment and instruction.
