Inside the Mind of Bobby Fischer
Revisiting His Writings and Annotations
Eigenschaften
402 Seiten, kartoniert, Siles Press, 1. Auflage 2025
Bobby Fischer is considered one of the greatest players in the history of chess, as well as one of its most instructive writers. During his career he authored several books (including his masterpiece, My 60 Memorable Games), wrote two regularly appearing magazine columns, and annotated games and articles for several different publications.
IM Donaldson, who started playing chess after the 1972 Fischer-Spassky world championship match, takes a fresh look at Fischer’s chess writings. The result is a comprehensive analysis of them, enhanced with detailed commentary and historical notes.
Inside the Mind of Bobby Fischer gathers most of Fischer’s articles, annotations, and miscellaneous writings together in one place, drawing heavily on Fischer’s first book, Bobby Fischer’s Games of Chess, and his Boys’ Life and Chess Life columns. This volume includes 116 annotated games (over a dozen of which appear in print for the first time).
Fischer prided himself on the quality of his annotations, and with a few exceptions, his analyses hold up well over half a century later. Fischer’s writings are key to understanding the thinking of this exceptional chess mind and this understanding can’t help but lead to improvement in your own play.
John Donaldson is an International Master who has served as the U.S. team captain in 26 Olympiads and World Team Championships (including Lucerne 1993 and Baku 2016, where his teams finished first). He often lectures at the Mechanics’ Institute Chess Club and the World Chess Hall of Fame, and occasionally at tournaments where he also plays. He makes his home in Berkeley, California, with his partner Holly Lee.
