Synopsis:

Best-selling and award-winning author Igor Khmelnitsky gathers examples from Bobby Fischer's games that are educational and entertaining, and can be studied without a board. In each of the examples the readers will take the seat of Fischer's opponent and be asked to come up with an assessment and a move. Based on their response they are assigned points towards their rating evaluation and a game score towards their "match." Once finished, the readers will learn how well they have done in the "match," have an estimate of their rating, and know what they need to work on to improve their game.

In this new book, the readers will discover:
- 60 diagrams with multiple-choice questions of varied complexity,
- comprehensive answers with diagrams to make reviewing easier,
- distributions of answers and other statistical reports by rating,
- ratings assigned overall and by 13 distinct categories,
- bonus material: warm-up, tie-breaker, tips and training suggestions, and more....
