Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess Mass Market Paperback – Illustrated, 1 July 1982

The book was received in good quality and pages are above average.Some complained in reviews that the pages are inverted BUT that's the way book has been purposefully made by Bobby Fisher and he calls it PROGRAM. So don't worry... You have to read till page 178 only on the right page and read the rest of the book inverted.Overall a good book for beginners.

It is only for under 800 elo rated people

Initial stage book. Good one to start.

Before you buy this book, you need to know three things:1. This book does not have anything to do with the famous chess grandmaster Bobby Fischer. He did not write it. The publishers merely paid him to put his name and image on the book. But the book is still great, unique, and is of immense help to beginners.2. The book does not teach you how to think like a grandmaster, but it does teach you how to not think like a rookie. The entire book is focused on basic mistakes. Therefore, naturally, there will come a point in your chess career when you will no more use any of the techniques in this book. At that point, you might think, "that book was a waste of money", but in reality, it has already done its job.3. You still need a basic chess book to go with it. This is primarily a puzzle/problems book that you practice on the side.Beginners often do not consider the positions of all the chess pieces when they make a move. They focus only on the piece that directly attacks any of their pieces. As a result, they tend to overlook obvious traps and mates. That is what this book teaches. It is essential, and does a great job of doing what it does.

The pages are not in proper sequence and many are printed upside down. It’s very difficult to read and enjoy the book in this condition

Recommended book for beginners. Packaging was good.

Good for beginners. Helpful in understanding how pieces move and various mating combination. Nothing on openings, mid games and strategies

Very good product if you are worried about upside down pages it is not a big issues the book is cheap and good
