<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Gata will share in his first volume how he became one of the world elite class players and contender for the title of World Chess Champion. Why and how he used different styles of play and will reveal how this learning process helped him to become a chess professional.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Kamsky analyses these games exhaustively, often explaining the mindset with which he approached them and why they have special meaning for him....it is still an amazing read... Carsten Hansen - ACM 01/2019. Kudos to Thinkers Publishing for convincing the American Chess Legend to publish with them, especially when we learn that This is going to be my only work on chess, a subject that I feel I have learned enough about to share with you some of my knowledge. - Chess Magazine April 2019.<br><br>So far two volumes in this series have been released and they do not disappoint in the slightest. Kamsky has a unique story in that after losing the 1996 FIDE world championship match to Karpov, he hardly played until his return in 2004. Shortly returning to a top level after his return, Kamsky has given us a splendid collection of his best efforts with some of the most in depth annotations I have ever seen. With each game taking up approximately 15-20 pages of analysis this is definitely not a book for the lazy. However Kamsky does not seek to drown the reader in an endless sea of variations, rather it is representative of the depth to which he understands chess, providing first-class explanations in the process. One of the few books I have read which gave me the instant impression of feeling stronger from going over the content. Gopal Menon 0620<br>
