The introduction of computer programs has fostered a fear of "the death of chess"--until the formulation of Fischerandom, champion Bobby Fischer's brainchild, which randomly changes starting positions of the pieces before each game. The rules of Fischerandom assure that all the essential qualities of the classical form of the game--even castling--remain, so that players can enjoy pure chess. Included are complete Fischerandom rules and a selection of illustrative games.
