Notes

Chess, as defined by the rules of FIDE, is an excellent game, played now for over half a millenium, which a history that traces back about one and a half millenium ago. As Ralph Betza stated it: It has a nice mixture of possibilities, with interesting endgames, tense maneuvering, and slashing attacks. Opening theory has developed very far, too far for the taste of some. Chess is played by many millions of people, from young to old, on many different levels of competence.
