| parisattack: Actually, he WAS on it at one time - now gone... There are many 'lessor lights' on the list, Stein definately deserves inclusion, IMHO. I have found quite a few Stein games in old Shakmatnyi Byulletins and CCCPs not in the CG database or either of the two English language Stein tomes. As I get time I will post as a collection. Perhaps my mentor <Chessman95> will assist? |

| HeMateMe: that book of his, the tactical puzzles, is very tough, very useful if you want to beef up your tactical vision. |

| Shams: Chessgames, once again you have stripped Leonid Stein from the home page drop-down menu. You have some kind 'a pree-de-lick-shun? |

| kamalakanta: Hi! Stein is available in the drop-down menu, if you change your preferences and choose a "longer list of players on home-page". Then he becomes visible. |

| RickN: I think it was a great "lost" for the world of chess players : Leonid died at 39 years old : (excuse me for my english :I live in Belgium). I began to interest me to the career of Leonid Stein (I was 34 years). I don't say why, but I am sure that he would to become a "top 10" in the circle of GMI's world !
Claude (Belgium). (PS : game 5 of Petrossian - Botvinnik (0/1), 1963, is one of my "prefered" games : domination of bishop by a "magic" knight) |

| parisattack: There are eight well-annotated Stein games in: Chess Secrets - Great Attackers. FYI the other Great Attackers are Tal and Kasparov. I would have placed Stein in the Power Play volume of this series but happy to see more of his games annotated. The only Stein tomes I know are: Leonid Stein, Master of Attack (Keene) and Leonid Stein, Master of Risk Strategy (Gufeld, Lazarev). |

| Richard Taylor: It's not good to see him smoking - probably bad eating habits, drinking and smoking killed him. |
 |

| FHBradley: A pretty standard cause of death, then. |
 |

| Richard Taylor: Avoidable, and thus quite unnecessary, though, and if he could have lived longer, as he died quite young: who knows what else he may have done? Korchnoi doesn't smoke or drink , and hasn't done for years. This benefited his play greatly and his life. The photo of him smoking fills me with disgust. |
