He has written well-known chess books such as ''Chess: 5334 Problems, Combinations, and Games'' and ''Reform Chess'', a survey of chess variants. He is also considered a pioneer theorist in child-rearing, who believes "geniuses are made, not born". Polgár's experiment with his daughters has been called "one of the most amazing experiments…in the history of human education." He has been "portrayed by his detractors as a Dr. Frankenstein" and viewed by his admirers as "a Houdini", noted Peter Maas in the ''Washington Post'' in 1992. Provided by Wikipedia
