"Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess" is a chess puzzle book written by Bobby Fischer and co-authored by Stuart Margulies and Don Mosenfelder, originally published in 1966.Â
It is one of the best-selling chess books of all time, with over one million copies sold.
The book is intended for beginners and uses a programmed learning approach, permitting readers to go back and retry each question if they give a wrong answer. Unusually for a modern chess book, it requires no knowledge of chess notation, using only diagrams with arrows and verbal descriptions of chess moves such as "rook-takes-pawn-check". The book begins with an explanation of the rules of chess. The puzzles focus largely on finding checkmate; combinations involving back rank mates are particularly emphasized.
