I grew up with Garry Kasparov’s book 'My Great Predecessors,' a bible for chess players, and I think that might be the reason why my intuition is so strong.

Another writer I love is Garry Kasparov especially the Great Predecessors series. The way he puts ideas into words is absolutely great.

This series has 5 parts. In it Garry Kasparov talks about his predecessors. Starting in the 1900 century and up to the chess world champion he overtook. Many grandmasters consider this book series to be the best. Even the current world chess champion Magnus Carlsen considers it to be one of the best chess books.
