Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess Review: Fisching for Perfection? - Having previously attempted to optimize various aspects of my existence – from the psychological to the biochemical – I decided it was high time to upgrade my strategic processing capabilities. My previous attempts at chess involved a lot of hopeful piece-shoving and bewildered staring, a highly inefficient algorithm for achieving victory. Recognizing the need for a more direct data injection, I acquired Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess. I didn't see it as a book, but rather as a firmware update for my brain's chess module, delivered via a 1982 analog interface. From a purely functional standpoint, this 352-page volume is a masterclass in efficient knowledge transfer. It bypasses the often-tedious theoretical lectures and gets straight to the core function: achieving checkmate. The programmed learning method feels less like reading and more like interacting with an early, highly effective training program. Each page presents a problem, a challenge to your pattern recognition subroutines, followed by the solution on the next page. The physical design, with left-hand pages printed upside down, is a stroke of genius in user interface design for self-discipline. It's the book's way of saying, "Prove you've processed the data before you get the answer, buddy." It's a physical barrier to premature gratification, a feature I honestly appreciate in a world of instant digital answers. The near-perfect 4.6-star rating from thousands of users is compelling empirical evidence of its efficacy in upgrading human chess-playing units. The inherent humor in this artifact lies in its earnest, almost relentless focus on checkmate. It's like buying a comprehensive guide to automotive repair and finding that 90% of it is just detailed instructions on how to install lug nuts. Essential? Absolutely. But the singular dedication to this one critical task is delightfully intense. One can almost hear Bobby's voice echoing from the pages, demanding, "Did you find the checkmate? No? Flip the page (and the book!) and try again." It's a no-nonsense approach that borders on the comically rigid, yet it undeniably works. Positively speaking, this book delivers precisely what it promises. It doesn't clutter your mental RAM with obscure opening variations. It focuses on the critical end-game sequence, the digital handshake of victory. Working through the problems felt like debugging a complex system, identifying the faulty moves and correcting them based on the provided optimal path. It built my confidence not by explaining why a move was good in abstract terms, but by showing me, repeatedly, how to achieve the desired outcome. It's like getting a cheat code for the final boss, but you still have to earn it by solving the puzzle yourself. In conclusion, if you're looking for a unique, highly effective, and humorously direct method to hardwire checkmate patterns into your strategic thinking, Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess is an exceptional tool. It provides the structured training environment and the built-in anti-cheat mechanism; the resulting ability to confidently deliver checkmate is the highly satisfying system upgrade. I highly recommend it for anyone ready to move beyond random piece-pushing and start finishing chess games with purpose. Review: Great book, and would highly recommend. - I loved this book. I had never played chess before, and I knew nothing. This book taught me EVERYTHING I needed to know to start playing, and has little exercises all the way through it. I think this is a fantastic book to learn chess. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #6,417 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #4 in Chess (Books) #8 in Puzzle & Game Reference (Books) #319 in Reference (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (10,267) | | Dimensions | 4.13 x 0.75 x 6.85 inches | | Edition | Reissue | | ISBN-10 | 0553263153 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0553263152 | | Item Weight | 6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 352 pages | | Publication date | July 1, 1982 | | Publisher | Bantam | | Reading age | 12 - 17 years | ## Images ![Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619nUIzi7YL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fisching for Perfection? *by M***S on April 27, 2025* Having previously attempted to optimize various aspects of my existence – from the psychological to the biochemical – I decided it was high time to upgrade my strategic processing capabilities.
