David Bronstein put out a book called "Chess in the Eighties".
I've not read it so I can't comment on the quality.
But the title certainly puts it right there in the running.

Thank for answering but i think the book was published in 1982 so
it does not really cover the eighties.

The Bronstein book is not a collection of games - so is not suitable
for you PierreB - I can not think of an equivalent book to the
Speelman for the 80's.

Gambit books have two books by Nunn and Stohl which mainly cover the
90s

Perhaps some back issues or volumes of New in Chess or Informator? you
could get a CD of games from Informator-languageless annotations by
top players from that period at a reasonable price.

Or You could tkae the view that chess in the 80s was the Karpov,
Korchnoi and Kasparov show and get their collected games (Timman(chess
the adventurous way) and Miles(its only me) were at their best in 80s
too.
