A transposition in chess is a little like a bait-and-switch marketing ploy. The customer thinks he's getting a bargain on one piece of merchandise, but he ends up buying another at a much higher price. In the first book devoted to chess transpositions, New York Post columnist and acclaimed chess author Andy Soltis shows how this strategy works over the board.
