Bobby Fischer

In this authoritative reissue of one of the most important chess books ever written, the great Bobby Fischer takes the reader move by move through 60 of his most instructive and entertaining games, including the astounding “Game of the Century,” played when he was only 15 years old! The controversial alterations that were made to Bobby Fischer’s words in the last edition have been omitted in this version, so only the author’s own words are expressed, giving a true insight into one of the most gifted, troubled, and controversial minds of the 20th century.

This book is essentially a teaching machine. The way a teaching machine works is: It asks you a question. If you give the right answer, it goes on to the next question. If you give the wrong answer, it tells you why the answer is wrong and tells you to go back and try again. This is called "programmed learning". The real authors were experts and authorities in the field of programmed learning. Bobby Fischer lent his name to the project. Stuart Margulies is a chess master and also a recognized authority on programmed learning. He is a widely published author of more than 40 books, all in the field of programmed learning, especially in learning how to read. For example, one of his books is "Critical reading for proficiency 1 : introductory level". Donn Mosenfelder is not a known or recognized chess player, but he was the owner of the company that developed and designed this book. He has written more than 25 books, almost all on basic reading, writing and math.

This is the only book ever written entirely by Bobby Fischer. It is not to be confused with other books with similar names that were written by other authors. Here is the blurb on the original dust jacket, as published in 1959: THERE ARE 34 games in this book. The 13 from the U.S. Championship Tournament of 1957-58 and the prize-winning "Game of the Century" from the Third Rosenwald Trophy Tournament are penetratingly analyzed by Bobby Fischer, whose annotations provide invaluable instructions to the chess player of either average or advanced ability. In addition, this book includes the scores of Bobby Fischer's 20 games from the 1958 Portoroz Interzonal Tournament in which he played against the world's elite in chess, among them Tal, Gligorich, Petrosyan, and Bronstein. The games in this book reveal Bobby Fischer's brilliance in middle and end-game strategy, and also the latest and soundest treatments of popular openings-in particular, the Sicilian and King's Indian defenses. By playing these games over, the reader will become familiar with the patterns of the latest and soundest lines in chess, and will automatically begin to make stronger moves in his own games. At the age of fifteen, Bobby Fischer was the youngest international grandmaster of all time. He lives in Brooklyn, was a junior at Erasmus Hall High School, and looking forward to the 1959 Candidates' Tournament, the winner of which challenges Mikhail Botvinnik for the world championship. About the Author At the age of fifteen, Bobby Fischer was the youngest international grandmaster of chess of all time.

Gli anni Duemila hanno portato una rivoluzione negli studi su Bobby Fischer grazie alle indagini di Peter Nicholas e Clea Benson, i due giornalisti del The Philadephia Inquirer che hanno individuato in Paul Nemenyi il vero padre del più grande scacchista di tutti i tempi. Riletto alla luce delle nuove informazioni in nostro possesso, il celebre testo scritto dal campione americano in occasione del suo arresto a Pasadena nel maggio del 1982, e che qui viene presentato per la prima volta in lingua italiana, acquista un sapore tutto nuovo - oltre a fornire molte risposte alle numerose domande sul perché dei bizzarri comportamenti del suo autore. Nel suo saggio introduttivo, Yuri Garrett, dopo aver presentato le coinvolgenti figure dei genitori - la geniale e scomoda Regina e il grande fisico Paul, coinvolto nel Manhattan Project analizza il testo alla ricerca dei germi di quella follia paranoide e antisociale che avrebbe caratterizzato gli ultimi anni di vita dell'uomo che vinse da solo la Guerra Fredda.

A Look into Bobby's MindFrom December 1966 until January 1970, Bobby Fischer wrote a chess column for Boys' Life, the official magazine of the Boy Scouts of America. Now, for the first time, all of these columns have been collected in one volume. It is an eclectic mix, a fascinating look at Fischer's writing and thinking as he reached his prime, maturing into the strongest player in the world.In these columns, he answers many readers' questions ― from basic to sophisticated. His answers provide a unique glimpse into Fischer's thinking at the chessboard. The time period covered in these columns was one of the most critical in Fischer's career. It was during this time period that his opus magnum, My Sixty Memorable Games, was released. And as player, he grew from one of a few super-grandmasters to the best player in the world. The only thing missing was an actual title match. That of course would soon come.These columns are a diverse collection of tips for players, comments on playing, annotated games and casual observations. The games and annotations are presented in modern English algebraic notation. As Andy Soltis notes in his foreword, "You read [Fischer's Boys' Life columns] to see what was going on in that remarkable mind. As quirky as Checkmate was, these columns tell us a lot."

Unique to the popular Grails web framework is its architecture. While other frameworks are built from the ground up, Grails leverages existing and proven technologies that already have advanced functionality built in. One of the key technologies in this architecture is Hibernate, on top of which Grails builds its GORM (Grails Object Relational Mapping) model layer. This provides Grails a persistence solution. Published with the developer in mind, firstPress technical briefs explore emerging technologies that have the potential to be critical for tomorrow's industry. Apress keeps developers one step ahead by presenting key information as early as possible in a PDF of 150 pages or less. Explore the future through Apress with Grails Persistence with GORM and GSQL. This firstPress book covers Grails persistence with GORM, from defining your first model to the nature of transactions and advanced Hibernate querying. Other APIs and tools such as GSQL (Groovy SQL) are covered as well, as needed, to empower your Grails persistence efforts.

Miguel Najdorf dijo en una oportunidad que Bobby Fischer "... arrojaba las piezas sobre el tablero y ellas solas caían en las casillas correctas".Mucho se ha escrito sobre el ajedrez de Bobby Fischer y muchas cosas han ocurrido en el ajedrez en general y en la tecnología en particular desde el periodo 1957-1967, años en los que tuvieron lugar estas 60 memorables partidas, verdaderas joyas del ajedrez. Someter hoy las decisiones de Fischer a potentísimos módulos de análisis, a ordenadores con capacidad de cálculo que en aquella época resultaban de ciencia ficción, y que no se detecten errores, habla de un auténtico fenómeno. Bobby jugaba preciso, limpio, demoledor y correcto. En estas 60 partidas de su primera época, marcada por su ascenso meteórico hacia la cumbre del ajedrez, ya asomaba el genio que cuestionaría la supremacía soviética en los años setenta y que se consumaría con el título de campeón mundial en 1972, al vencer, en el "Encuentro del siglo" al ruso Boris Spassky.Como señala Antonio Gude en el pró "El criterio selectivo del autor sobre estas partidas es importante. No todas las partidas incluidas en este libro son las mejores de la primera parte de su carrera, pero sí las que más le importaron o las que más se grabaron en su memoria (...) Nadie antes que él, (e incluyo a todos los campeones del mundo) comentó con tanto rigor sus partidas, que diseccionó con la destreza de un forense vocacional.Edición revisada y actualizada por el maestro internacional, Gabriel Rojo Huerta.

It is a 753-page paperback described, opposite the title page, as ‘Second Printing’, with the additional information ‘ISBN 0-9666673-0-1’ and ‘Printed in Iceland’. No publisher or editor is named; nor is there a date of publication.

Il Campione del Mondo Bobby Fischer analizza 60 partite importanti e significative da lui giocate, soffermandosi sulle considerazioni strategiche e sulle tattiche di gioco – proprie e altrui – che si alternano durante una partita di torneo. L’Autore non si limita ad esporre il proprio punto di vista, ma interpreta anche quello dell’avversario, riporta commenti di colleghi e spettatori e inserisce molti riferimenti a situazioni analoghe in incontri precedenti o successivi. Ogni partita è accompagnata da una nota introduttiva del Grande Maestro Internazionale Larry Evans.
