Garry Kasparov on Garry Kasparov is a unique series. Its three volumes include the greatest battles fought by the greatest chess player of all time. He himself comments on his games, from the ones he played at ten years old, which were already beautiful and intense, up to those that took place in 2005, the year of his retirement. This work has received critical and public acclaim for its rigorous analyses and exhaustive details that describe the evolution of chess, both on and off the board.
In the 1980s and early 1990s, Kasparov increased his enormous superiority over his rivals. He had a very sharp attacking style and rarely lost. The games contained in this volume, played by Kasparov against the best chess players in the world, are real masterpieces. This period includes three title defenses against Karpov and a series of small meetings against elite players such as Hübner, Anderssen, Timman and Miles. Also at that time Kasparov achieved spectacular results in two individual and team events. He won the gold medal at three chess olympiads (Dubai 1986, Thessaloniki 1988 and Manila 1992) and completely dominated the World Cup Finals of the eighties, always finishing first or shared first: Belfort 1988 (11 ½ / 15), Reykjavik 1988 (11/17), Barcelona 1989 (11/16) and Skelleftea 1989 (9½ /15). Other victories in important tournaments include Brussels 1987 (8½ / 11), Amsterdam 1988 (12.09), Tilburg 1989 (12/14), Belgrade 1989 (9½/11) and Linares 1990 (8/11).
