Dhanush H B –
This book is amazing for chess beginners. It slowly grows you into intermediate player. Highly recommend!
Palak Gupta –
A decent intro for beginners, but felt a bit dated. Fischer’s genius is undeniable, but the teaching style could be modernized. Still, a classic for a reason.
Bableen Kaur –
Expected more from a book by Fischer. It’s okay, but a little dry. Maybe better for absolute beginners only. Not very inspiring.
Rahul Nadimidoddi –
Fischer’s insights are valuable, even in this beginner’s guide. I enjoyed the unique teaching approach. A solid choice for learning chess.
Aayush Mittal –
Some of the lessons are difficult to understand. It is not a very beginner friendly book. Advanced players may like it.
Amrita Reji –
Fantastic book! It broke down complex concepts into easy-to-understand steps. My chess game has improved significantly. A must-have!
Anurag Singh Praliya –
I didn’t find it particularly engaging. The material is presented in a rather dull way. Okay for learning the basics.
Pankaj Kumar Sharma –
I was hoping for some more advanced tips. Overall it only skims on chess tactics. A great book to start the journey though.
Ayush Mittal –
A solid foundation, but could use some updates for current chess strategies. Still, it’s worth reading for historical context.
Deepti –
This book is amazing. I was able to grasp the basic concept very easily. I would recommend everyone to read it.
Puneet Raj –
I found the book a bit repetitive. It does cover the basics well, but I got bored quickly. Okay, but not amazing.
Prachi Charde –
Clear and concise instructions. I appreciated the exercises and feel like I’m finally understanding chess. A great teaching book!
Adarsh Akula –
The programmed learning is effective! I found it engaging and improved my game quickly. Highly recommend for new chess players.
Utkarsh Gupta –
Not as comprehensive as I hoped. It skims over some important concepts. Still, it’s a good starting point for absolute beginners.
Vinit Yadav –
A bit outdated, but the core principles are timeless. I would recommend it alongside a more modern chess guide. Decent.
Alyn Biju Sahariya S –
Excellent teaching book for chess. It walks you through it as you make progress. A great book to read and learn the game.
Vansh Mahajan –
As a total beginner, this book really helped me understand the basics. Clear explanations and helpful exercises. I’m enjoying chess now!
Anurag Ghoshal –
This book is not that great if you are not a beginner. It skims over the intermediate concepts. Good only for beginner.
Khushwant Sodhi –
It is a very good book to learn some tactics. The way Fischer teaches is very straightforward. I would recommend.
Aditya Mishra –
Great for learning the fundamentals! I wish there were more advanced strategies, but I learned some new checkmates. Good for beginners.
Diksha Saini –
While helpful, it lacks the depth I was expecting from a Fischer book. Good for basic concepts, not for advanced play.
Gujjar Krishna Pavan Sai –
A great introduction to chess! I’m now confident enough to play with friends and family. Thanks, Bobby Fischer!

Excellent for self-study! The programmed learning made it easy to progress at my own pace. Very effective and well-written book.
