„New in Chess” przedstawia…! (1)

This new book is part three in a series of opening books aimed at the post-beginner (Elo 1400-1700).

The authors started with the question: What does a chess player need who is familiar with the rules, but often gets into trouble right away in the opening? They have tried to explain the openings. The ideas and plans behind each line are explained in detail to ensure that the reader understands them properly instead of just playing moves that he has learned by heart. Even the sense and purpose of single moves are explained if they are not quite obvious. The result is a book that helps the reader understand the ‚Semi-Open Games’ and instructions to show him how to use them.

In the Semi-Open Games there are major chapters on the French Defense and the Caro-Kann Defense and smaller chapters on the Pirc, Scandinavian, Alekhine and Nimzowitsch.

The other books in this series cover the ‚Sicilian Defense’ and the ‚Open Games’.

Please have a look at this new opening manual for post-beginners.

Best wishes,
