Did you know that? Boris Gulko is the only player to have won both the USSR and American chess championships. In addition to being a chess genius (he is one of the few players to have a positive score against Garry Kasparov), he holds a master's degree in psychology from Moscow University. So it's only natural that he should offer us this book which, as the title suggests, deals with all the psychological aspects facing chess players (imagination, concentration, mental strength, stress, anxiety, emotion, etc.). A dozen chapters and numerous sections illustrate the points made by the authors, GM Boris Gulko and Joel Sneed, professor of psychology at New York University and... chess enthusiast. Available in hardcover. 226 pages
