    “Modern Art of War: Gift to My 7-Year-Old Self” by Yaser Rashidi is an extraordinary book that seamlessly combines the strategic depth of chess with real-life applications. This isn’t just a book; it’s a mentorship in navigating life’s challenges with grace and strategy.

    From the very first page, Rashidi invites readers into a thoughtful dialogue about rational thinking, strategic resource management, and exploiting opportunities, which he cleverly parallels with chess tactics. What stands out is the book’s ability to translate complex chess strategies into straightforward life lessons that are easy to understand and apply. This approach not only makes the content accessible but also deeply impactful.

    The chapters on maintaining a ‘Vicious Predator Mindset’ and ‘Antifragility’ are particularly compelling, offering insights that encourage resilience and adaptability in the face of adversity. The book is peppered with engaging anecdotes and real-life examples that bring the lessons to life, making the theoretical aspects of chess incredibly tangible and relatable.

    The quality of the writing is impeccable—clear, concise, and directly to the point with a flowing narrative that makes it a page-turner. It’s evident that Rashidi writes with a passion that reflects his deep understanding of both chess and life’s intricate challenges.

    This book was so much fun to listen to. Opened up a whole new world for me. It is very much like San Tzu’s Art of War, but in a current day format. Loved it. Can’t recommend enough. Buy it for your kid and you’ll see him or her excel in chess.
