Atlas plays chess with his friend and they discuss the similarities: "In both chess and business you have to deal with ambiguity and uncertainty. You have to anticipate your opponents moves.

From reading the article, it sounds like the format of content has changed, but the content has remained relatively the same. In MBA school, we were always reading cases that had background scenarios. In almost all of those cases, we had to decide what was relevant information and what was fluff.
