Rendition Conducive To Books Common Sense in Chess

Kasparov's writing convinced me to take Lasker's writing more seriously. So I did. (I also plan to re-read his Chess Manual, which I read, like 18 years ago!) Common Sense is a quick read and great primer for beginners -- even if the the opening advice is stuffy, hey, at least it's systematic and easy to imitate.

Anyhow, I didn't read this book for the chess advice, but rather for its philosophy and definition of chess as a fight, rather than as a science/art/etc. This definition speaks to me more than any other I know, and really is the reason I had to hang it up for competitive chess all those years. That is, staying in the land of fighting became too much for me and my mental health eventually. Now, I've returned to chess, but keep the fight at bay with 15 daily doses and more reading about chess culture.
