Book Description

Today's greatest young stars, ranging from ten to seventeen years old, some perhaps to be future world champions, present a fascinating look at the world of chess. Learn from their stories of successes, failures, world travels, and love of the game. They show off their best moves and admit to their most embarrassing blunders. This basic chess primer features diagrams, explanations, and winning ideas written for kids by their prodigal peers. Features Jordy Mont-Reynaud (14), who smashed Fischer's record to become the youngest USCF Master, to be eclipsed by Vinay Bhat (13), and then Hikaru Nakamura, a 10-year-old superstar who has since become a two-time US Champion and one of the highest rated players in the world, and others.

    An Introduction to the Moves, Strategies, and Philosophy of Chess from one of the World's Top Chess Players
    'When most people learn to play chess, they usually memorize the movements of the pieces and then spend years pummeling away at each other with little rhyme and even less reason. Though I will show you how each piece leaps around, what it likes to do on holidays, the real purpose of this book is to teach you to understand the four major principles of my Seirawan method: force, time, space and pawn structure. Each is easy to understand and each is a weapon that will enable you to defeat most anyone you challenge to a game' -Yasser Seirawan
