Every chess player must face White's various Flank Openings
-
and few
relish the task. Denied a sharp, counterattacking system such as the Sicilian
or an Indian Defence, it is all too easy to play routine moves against a quiet
opening from White, and get slowly suffocated.
This book provides a complete set of weapons against these openings. It is
based on sound, uncompromising play by Black, seeking to nullify White's
initiative, but keeping enough imbalance in the game to play for a win.
Throughout, the book is illustrated with sparkling recent games, and the
author's own deep, original analysis.
