Making the Right Moves, from the Board to the Boardroom
by Garry Kasparov
One of the most highly regarded strategists of our time teaches us how the tools that made him a world chess champion can make us more successful in business and in life.
"Kasparov fans will find much to enjoy, but serious business readers should look elsewhere." - PW
"An epilog detailing his new career in Russian politics, founding the anti-Putin United Civil Front after retiring from professional chess in 2005, seems too much an afterthought, but overall this engaging book will add depth to business collections" - Library Journal.
