Default 'Chess for Dummies' by Eade?

Of course I know this already. :-)
I was commenting on the book, saying I learned a "new thing" from it (a
sarcastic way of saying "this book lied to me!")

Er, what`s the deal with this book?
I learned a new thing from it... Kasparov is from Armenia (?!).


No, he was born in Baku, nowadays Azerbaijan (then CCCP/USSR) but after

his
father`s death (Weinstein) he has taken his mother`s name Kasparian which

is
obviously an Armenian one and changed it a little to sound more Russian.

Regards,
Jerzy
