“Described as ‘the ideal guide to who’s who in modern chess’ this substantial volume is just that: the eighteen best chess players in the world split between established stars and the players likely to dominate in the next decade with Judit Polgar and Gata Kamsky making up the numbers. Each player has a chapter outlining their history, an analysis of their playing style and four of their best games deeply annotated. The experienced authors have shared the work between them.  Beautifully produced with (as so often with Quality Chess) numerous exceptional photographs, this volume is a fine introduction to the leading players of our time.” Ray Edwards,  Julian Farrand,  David Friedgood, ECF judges.

“An Impressive Anthology… A beautifully produced 18-player anthology… Exceptional photographs enhance the content… a great collection of 72 games… an outstanding book, a beautiful gallery of great players.”  GM Lubomir Kavalek, The Washington Post.
