Book Reviews of How Life Imitates Chess

Book Review: Nothing Really Groundbreaking
Summary: 3 Stars

Garry Kasparov is truly a very interesting person, a chess genius, a businessman, and a politician. Unfortunately, the book's lessons appear somewhat forced and disjointed, the stories are a little hard to follow, and his principles are nothing new - same stuff, different author. I didn't find any grand inspiration, insight or earth shattering revelations here. Just OK.
