A Game of Queens - Judit Polgar enseña ajedrez 3 (tapa dura)

This A Game of Queens - Judit Polgar Teaches Chess 3 is the third volume in Judit Polgar’s acclaimed series, combining autobiography with practical chess instruction in a single hardcover chess book. It follows her career from 2001 onward, when she was among the world’s elite and facing names such as Kasparov, Karpov, Korchnoi and Anand.

This is a book for readers who want more than a collection of games. Polgar explains the ideas behind the moves in clear, accessible language while also tracing her own path to the top. The result works both as biographical reading and as a study resource for ambitious players.

What this book covers

A Game of Queens completes the trilogy in which one of the greatest women players in chess history turns her tournament experience into concrete lessons. This volume focuses on the years when Judit Polgar was a Top 10 player in the world and competing against the strongest champions of her era.

Since 1989, she held the number one spot on the women’s ranking list, and in 2005 she became the only woman in history to appear in a World Championship final. That background gives the book particular weight: the reader gets commentary and reflections from someone who did not just watch chess history unfold, but helped shape it.

Inside the book

You’ll find annotated games, analyses, tournament stories and photographs. One of the strengths of the series is the way Polgar explains her thinking: alongside variations and calculations, she adds plenty of verbal explanation, making the ideas behind the moves, plans and decisions easier to follow.
