ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
My love and gratitude to my mother, who contributed her experience as a chess teacher and her clarity of expression to this book. I am indebted to the efforts of John MacArthur, who spent long hours entering my early games into ChessBase, and to my friends Bruce Pandolfini, Maurice Ashley, and Gregori Kaidanov, who scoured the manuscript for errors. Also, for the inspiration of Jack, Neal, and Kitty. Thanks, Dad, for teaching me how to write.
