Recently I have gotten interested in chess, and I want to learn more about it. Please suggest me any book about it— history, introduction or strategies, it is up to you!

The sexist cover alone makes this book a collector’s item: it is wrong in so many ways. Nevertheless, I gained a couple of hundred elo points by analyzing the positions that are in it. If you are relatively new to chess, studying tactics will pay off big time.
