    Still very relevant today. Although some games were fixed, it helps build healthy analysis habits

    One of the most popular tournament book in chess, to the point of being, in my opinion, even very slightly overrated.

    The tournament itself was a fantastic fight, and there are many famous gems played there, but the annotations are a bit uneven, and some games are barely touched upon; however, given the amount of games, this is understandable.

    The English version would really benefit from an update edition, the font and the formatting are somewhat uncomfortable to read, the Italian edition from 2005 is much more pleasant
