From the Back Cover
Let us be quite clear that it is not necessary for the chess bluffer actually to know how to play the game. Indeed, die-hard bluffers of the old school would argue vehemently that to learn to play would be tantamount to cheating, and anyone caught doing it should be asked to resign.
Whether you play or not, it is vital that you avoid getting all fouled up in the mere mechanics of play. Concentrate on chess's rich, colorful vocabulary and its impoverished, colorful players.
Bluffer's Guides is a series of snappy little books containing facts, jargon, and all you need to know for instant expertise.
