Foreword by A. Karpov. In this book, the author considers the outstanding American grandmaster, world champion Robert Fisher from an unexpected angle: he is interested in how Fisher lost. It just so happened that chess masters, bringing their creativity to the court of readers, almost always tell only about victories. All of us are accustomed to see the instructive in the highest achievements, forgetting, perhaps, that defeats, by virtue of their sobering effects, teach more, although pride is much less fun. Mednis sees his task in highlighting the “moment of error” in each party and trying to explain it. Readers will see on the pages of the book not a mythical chess machine, but a Fischer man, who, like all mortals, is not alien to excitement and error, frivolity and negligence. The games of the great player Fisher, which may be especially lost to him, contain the richest chess experience and information for all of us. Recommended by highly qualified chess players, as well as in coaching. "A wonderful book, in my opinion." V. Ivanchuk (from an interview with E. Surov).

Yugoslavian grandmaster S. Gligorich - a participant in many major competitions, in which he held high places, was the champion of Yugoslavia 11 times. Gligorich is known as a chess theorist and publicist. The reader, getting acquainted with the book Gligoric, may pay attention to the mean words about yourself. To emphasize his work with a well-deserved number of exclamation marks is hampered by innate modesty. Nevertheless, moves, ideas, plans, combinations - all that we call the highest skill, as well as his devotion to his beloved art speak for themselves. The main criterion in the selection of parties, the author highlighted the presence of interesting opening ideas, so that the parties were instructive from the very beginning. The next criterion was the relative brevity of the parties. The book “I play against figures” is a kind of collection of the best games of the Yugoslav grandmaster. Complements their small autobiographical essay. The book is designed for highly qualified chess players.
