About the Book

The objective of chess, a two-player strategy board game in which pieces are moved across a square board, is to place the opponent's monarch in "checkmate," a position in which it is unable to evade capture. On an 8x8 grid with alternating light and dark squares, the game is played.
Each player is dealt sixteen pieces at the outset: eight pawns, one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, and two bishops. Specific movement patterns and capture principles govern each piece:
- One square may be traversed by the monarch in any direction.
- The queen has unrestricted diagonal, horizontal, and vertical movement potential.
- An unlimited number of squares may be moved horizontally or vertically by rooks.
- Knights execute a "L" formation, consisting of two squares proceeding in a particular direction, followed by one square positioned perpendicular to that direction.
- Bishops may diagonally execute any number of square moves.
- Pawns advance by one square while capturing in a diagonal direction. They are presented with the choice to advance two squares on their initial action.
Checkmating the opponent's monarch signifies that the king is vulnerable to capture and unable to evade capture with any subsequent move. Insufficient material to achieve checkmate, threefold repetition (when the same position occurs three times with the same player to move), stalemate (when one player has no legal moves and their king is not in check), or insufficient material to achieve checkmate are all circumstances in which the game may also terminate in a draw.
Chess is renowned for its intricate tactical and strategic dimensions, which demand players to not only devise their own strategy but also anticipate the movements of their adversaries.
Due to its intricacy and depth, it has been the subject of extensive research by computer scientists, psychologists, and mathematicians. It is played both casually and competitively.
