Bobby Fischer Has Died
Perhaps later I'll discuss this intriguing yet revolting figure. Until then, enjoy "The Game Of The Century."

The little pamphlet Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess is perhaps the best how-to book I have read. Bobby teaches a whole philosophy of the game as well as many basics and subtleties in a few pages. At the end, one is no GM but certainly can play and understand the game well. The philosophy is aggressive: from the first move think how can I check mate the opponent.
