"First Edition" stated; number line complete 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 -- the first printing. Yes, the Soviets cheated -- they'd grant each other early "draws," allowing their teammates to save their energy to defeat the lone Western challenger. And of course they subsidized their competitors, while Bobby, living in poverty, had to beg travel money. He beat them all, anyway, sometimes 9-0 with no "draws," which was unheard of. But eventually, his own paranoia destroyed him. 402 pp. including Index. Reduced from $42. Nº de ref. del artículo: 012718
