How Existence Imitates Chess is a primer on how to think, produce decisions, prepare strategies and anticipate the near future. Kasparov offers distilled the lessons he learned over an eternity like a Chess grandmaster to protect the useful side-tactics, strategy, preparation-as well as the subtler, more individual arts of using memory, intuition, and imagination. It’s a remarkably honest audiobook where Kasparov-one from the world’s most celebrated and successful competitors-details both his blunders and his victories, often with the intention to enable visitors to soak up his lessons and do better for themselves.
