Delchev's Practical Opening Repertoire : The Scandinavian, Pirc & Modern Defenses

The openings presented in this book are the Scandinavian, Pirc and Modern. We presented the material in complete games rather than just publishing my own analysis for the following reasons. While you are studying the opening you will be able to familiarize yourself with the history of the variation, developed by the best players of every generation, and we see their contribution to modern chess theory: Fischer, Spassky, Tak, Botvinnik, Petrosian, Korchnoi and many other chess legends. You will see in practice how to realize an opening advantage, rather than just see =or+ at the end of the variation and be left wondering why. Every game shows typical methods of attack in the given opening: sacrifice of a pawn for the initiative, attack with opposite-side-castling, attacking plans in specific pawn structures which are frequently seen in this opening variation. Every chapter begins with the general ideas of the opening and concludes with a selection of 30 combinations for you to solve which are typical for the corresponding opening. This book is appropriate for players of any level. Anyone can extract the maximum practical use from this book and have fun at the same time.
