2006-02-15 A reminder of remarkable talent

Do you realise that it is nearly 20 years since a collection of Kasparov's
games appeared? Remarkable but true. So such a book as this is certainly not
premature, though one might think that the author was clairvoyant in view of
the fact that its publication coincides with Kasparov's shock declaration of
his retirement from competitive chess.

In this, the first of two volumes, the author takes 74 of Kasparov's best
games from the period 1973-1993, and subjects them to a detailed analysis.
The author is well known for his analytical writings, and has already had
published by Gambit a collection of games (Instructive Modern Chess
Masterpieces) based on his column in a Czech magazine.

In this book he has drawn on a wide variety of sources, including Kasparov's
own annotations, and the emphasis lies in explaining the thought processes
behind the moves. It is impossible for me to say anything about Kasparov
that has not been said before, but for a reminder of the remarkable talent
that now appears to be lost to the chess world I recommend that you simply
read and enjoy!
