"One of the nicest features of the book is that the amateur often becomes the star of the show, and not only when he scores a half-point or full-point upset… [They] are profiled and humanized, celebrated as individuals and chess lovers in their own right.The book may help the amateurs who read it: there are around 35 full, well-annotated games and some additional fragments too. There's plenty of advice too, but the best reason to buy it is as a celebration of the game we all love, and of most – if not, ultimately, all – of the people who play it. As the great Mikhail Tal once commented, "We are all amateurs." -- Dennis Monokroussos, Chess Today
