By Frank Erwich

Garry Kasparov is a fighter, both in chess and in life. The 13th World Champion regards his playing style as 'a symbiosis of the styles of Alekhine, Tal and Fischer'. Kasparov was known for his deep opening analysis, but also for his positional understanding and combinatory play. Do you want to adopt Kasparov-like thought processes in your own games? Try this tactics training book and play the same winning moves as the former World Champion did in his games! One hundred training exercises are offered, in positions where Kasparov turned the game in his favour. The puzzles start at a moderate level and gradually get more difficult. Don't give up!

Garry Kasparov (1963) became World Chess Champion in 1985. Only 22, he dethroned Anatoly Karpov in a thrilling match. In 1986, 1987 and 1990 these chess giants faced each other again in World Championship Matches, but every time Kasparov managed to defend his title. In 1993 a new challenger appeared on the scene: Nigel Short. Unhappy with the conditions offered by World Chess Federation FIDE, Kasparov and Short decided to play a match outside FIDE's jurisdiction and formed a new organization: the Professional Chess Association (PCA). Kasparov defeated Short, but FIDE did not acknowledge Kasparov as World Champion.

This caused a split in the chess world. From 1993 until 2006 there
