Mikhail Botvinnik, the world chess champion from 1948 to 1963, has been the subject of study for players worldwide for decades. However, little has been written about his remarkable life and career. This book delves into his dual role as a renowned scientist and the first truly professional chess player, as well as his complex relationships with Soviet leaders, including Josef Stalin, his intense rivalries, and his ill-fated quest to develop the ultimate chess-playing computer program.
The book features over 85 games, 127 diagrams, twelve photographs, a chronology of his life and career, a bibliography, an index of openings, an index of opponents, and a general index.
