Inside the Mind of Bobby Fischer - tapa blanda

This Inside the Mind of Bobby Fischer paperback chess book brings together Bobby Fischer’s writings, annotations and commentary in one English-language volume, with detailed historical notes that help place his ideas and games in context.

What this book covers

Bobby Fischer was not only one of the greatest players in chess history, but also a remarkably insightful writer. Alongside My 60 Memorable Games, he produced regular magazine columns and contributed commentary and articles for a range of publications.

In Inside the Mind of Bobby Fischer, IM Donaldson revisits those texts and expands them with detailed commentary and historical notes. The result is a substantial study of Fischer’s thinking, drawn from his own articles, analyses and game annotations.

What’s included

The book gathers most of Fischer’s articles, analyses and other writings in one place. It draws heavily on material from Bobby Fischer’s Games of Chess and from his columns in Boys’ Life and Chess Life, making it an easy way to follow the development of his chess ideas without searching through multiple publications.

It contains 116 annotated games, including more than a dozen that appear in print for the first time. That makes it a useful read for chess students, players and anyone interested in Fischer’s games and ideas.
