The first DVD with videos from Anand's chess career reflects the very beginning of that career and goes as far as 1999. It starts with his memories of how he first learned chess and shows his first great games (including those from the 1984 WCh for juniors).

The high point of his early developmental phase was the winning of the 1987 WCh for juniors. After that, things continue in quick succession:

-- the first victories over Kasparov
-- WCh candidate in both the FIDE and  PCA cycles
-- the WCh match against Kasparov in 1995.

The second DVD begins in 2000, when Anand became FIDE World Champion, and it ends with his victory in the 2007 World Championship in Mexico.

Anand not only analyses his best games, but casts a look back at the World Championship in Delhi/Teheran in 2000 and the years before, he discusses the situation in the Bundesliga and Kasparov's retirement from tournament chess.

Acclaimed as the Fastest Brain in the World, Viswanathan Anand is the world number one and World Champion. Experts rate him as one of the biggest natural talents in the history of the game. In March 2007 he reached the number one spot on the world ranking lists by winning the prestigious Linares tournament.

In September 2007 Anand won the World Championship for the second time in his career when in Mexico he became the undisputed World Chess Champion, ending a schism in the chess world which had lasted for many years.

If his talent as a rapid chess player is legendary, his records in classical chess have been superlative. In January 2006 he became the only player in the tournament's 70-year history to win the Corus Chess event five times (1989, 1998, 2003, 2004 and 2006).

Anand is one of the most clear-headed chess analysts in the world, and his explications are astonishingly accessible for club players.

More than 8 hours of rare insights into arguably the best brain in chess.

System requirements: PC, Windows Vista or XP (SP2), DVD-ROM drive, sound card.
