Where his first book, Pimpology: The 48 Laws of the Game (2007), was organised as a list of laws, this one uses chess as its governing image. The book's description presents it as a guide to success and competitive advantage: reading opponents, planning moves ahead and applying that discipline to business and personal life. It was published without a co-writer, unlike Pimpology, which he wrote with Karen Hunter.

The title is carried into his teaching: Pimp College presents its material as "Pimpology & The Art of Human Chess."
