The Oxford Companion to Chess by David Hooper

This practical guide to all aspects of the game has been revised and updated to include over 160 new biographies (most of them of today's players), more names of openings, many more technical terms, and more game scores and compositions. Ranging from the earliest myths to the present, the Companion offers full coverage of all aspects of over-the-board and correspondence play, and other forms of telechess. Fully cross-referenced throughout, the 2600 entries take the reader from laws and strategies of the game to details of the representation of chess in philately, literature, art, theatre, and film.
