Cómo la vida imita al ajedrez

Life is like a game of chess and in this book, Garry Kasparov, a master of the board, explains how solutions to everyday problems require the same arts and techniques (knowledge, preparation, strategy, calculation of variants, etc. .) than the game of 64 squares. In chess, as in reality, it is necessary to analyze, discard, organize thought, understand the actions that may occur, have solutions prepared, know how to conclude and study all possible variants, be able to make a virtue of necessity and understand the faculties of the adversary to turn them around for their own benefit. For this, it is essential to have an iron self-discipline, intuition and logic that facilitate us to approach common problems. As in everyday life, knowledge of the situation helps us to live and face challenges with hope of success. Written from common sense and the deep strategic intelligence developed in his long and brilliant career, this book shows how to advance step by step towards the ultimate goal; also how to turn a defeat into a future victory, how to turn around a compromised situation and how to prepare for great challenges, always starting from real situations from Kasparov's long experience and drawing the most pertinent lessons.
