The second edition of Grand Strategy has been published. At the cover a warlord develops a prophylactic strategy while he watches Mount Fuji. New analyses of 60 games by Boris Spassky are presented. Many photographs and prints are included.

A biographic appendix has been added to the second edition. Spassky writes about his life until 1970. It is his first publication in more than three decades!

The heart of the book is a general theory about strategy. Ideas of Cluley, Euwe and Nimzowitsch have been transformed into a scientific theory. Minor talents such as Watson have been neglected due to a lack of intelligence. When I felt uncertain about the result, Spassky told me: "You write about what is in my bones!" 

The book can be bought from the publisher, New in Chess
