Description



About the Book



From 1975 to 1985, Anatoly Karpov reigned as World Champion of chess. He is a tough, deliberate player who seldom makes bad moves. But until the publication of this book, little was known about Karpov himself or his chess. It remained for International Grandmaster Edmar Mednis to analyze Karpov's style of play and to reveal something of the Russian champion's life and personality.
