This fourth volume of the series 'Garry Kasparov on Modern Chess' concentrates on all the games played between the two from 1988 to the present day and features their fifth World Championship match played in New York and Lyon 1990. The 1985 match when Kasparov brilliantly won the final game to take the title and become - at the age of 22 - the youngest ever world champion.īetween 19 Garry Kasparov and Anatoly Karpov contested five long matches for the World Championship. The epic 1984/85 contest which was lasted six months before being controversially halted "without result" by the then President of FIDE Florencio Campomanes. Garry Kasparov on Modern Chess, Part 2: Kasparov vs Karpov 1975-1985 In a section at the end of the book, top opening theoreticians provide their own "take" on the progress made in opening theory in the 1980s. Kasparov also analyzes some of the most notable games played in that period. Such systems as the controversial (at the time) "Hedgehog" opening plan of passively developing the pieces no further than the first three ranks are examined in great detail. The book "Revolution in the 70s" concerns the revolution in opening theory that was witnessed in that decade. His book Revolution in the 70s (published in March 2007) covers "the openings revolution of the 1970s–1980s" and is the first book in a new series called "Modern Chess Series", which intends to cover his matches with Karpov and selected games.
