My Great Predecessors - Volume 5
Garry Kasparov's magnificent work is unique in chess literature: the thirteenth world champion reflects on the genius of his twelve predecessors and their opponents in their times, telling the story of the World Chess Championship competition over the past one hundred and eighty years. Classic games are subjected to Garry Kasparov's meticulous analysis, with the help of powerful computers. In this way, many of the previous assessments are changed and the author rewrites the development of the game of chess in the 19th and 20th centuries.
This fifth volume is dedicated to the 12th World Champion, Anatoly Karpov (1975 – 1985) and his historic rival Viktor Kortchnoi, and also to the dramatic duels they fought to win the supreme chess crown.
