With contributions by Boris Gelfand, Erwin l & amp; Ami, Geert van der Stricht, Edward Dearing, giving a passionate answer to Sergey Tiviakov & s negative comments on his Dragon book, and many others. Sosonko & Corner This time, Genna Sosonko has a look at 2.Qh5 and other early queen sorties in the opening. Hikaru Nakamura & s hallmark recently. Before, the young US Champion only played this in hundreds of Internet games, albeit against the best. Is this the beginning of a new trend ?, Sosonko wonders. As always, Viktor Kortchnoi gives a clear answer. Book Review Glenn Flear muses on the new phenomenon: the Chess DVD. Despite some reservations, he has to admit that Garry Kasparov (called "Mr. Kasparov", to Flear & s surprise) does win him in the beginning! An ambitious repertoire book for Black by joint authors Alburt, Dzindzichashvili, Perelshteyn and Lawrence is surprisingly comprehensive, logical and cleverly laid out. Tiger Hillarp Persson has published one more "repertoire" book, his is a very sharp one on his pet Modern Defense. A book written with the heart, as is Edward Dearing & s second baby: Challenging the Grunfeld.

    Forum Readers from all over the world join in discussions of previous surveys. Both (grand) masters and club players shed their light on new discovery and search together for the truth. With contributions by Ian Rogers, Dorian Rogozenko, Tibor Karolyi, Geert van der Stricht and many others. Sosonko's Corner In this column, Genna Sosonko takes a look at yet another provocative theme in the opening: the 'delayed' advance of a pawn. In more lines than you would expect, this loss of a tempo that we could call the 'Arabic' method can be surprisingly effective, although the author admits that it would have left the Stars of the Past utterly amazed! '. Except Philidor, of course, who is already taught that 'excellent pawn play is a key characteristic of true craftsmanship'. However it may be, he who uses the "step by step" method. Book Review Non-theory openings are rapidly becoming theory. Glenn Flear investigates James Plaskett's The Queen's Bishop Attack Revealed and Richard Palliser's Tango !. He read the QBA, despite some deficiencies, with a smile on his face and found Tango! to be "fairly objectively analysed" and so these books may serve to popularize these still relatively unknown openings. Next, Flear compares Palliser's The Modern Benoni with Endre Vegh's Starting Out: Modern Benoni. He found quite a few differences. Our ever candid author author Sergey Tiviakov is exceptionally enthusiastic about 'What do you need? 32 NIC Surveys Yearbook 77 Sicilian Defense: Najdorf Variation 7 ...
