These days the move 1 d4 is often used as the precursor to quieter
opening choices such as the London System, the Colle System or the
Trompovsky. In this book the highly experienced chess author and
coach Cyrus Lakdawala goes back to basics, outlining an aggressive
repertoire for White based on 1 d4, following up with the
traditional 2 c4. The emphasis of the repertoire is to gain space
as quickly as possible and set Black the task of finding quick
counterplay or face the risk of being overrun. Lakdawala recommends
lines with f2-f3 against the Nimzo-Indian, the Petrosian System
against the King's Indian and the Flick Knife (f4 with Bb5+)
against the Benoni. With thorough explanations on pawn structures
and piece placement, this book provides insight to both strong
masters and less experienced players alike. The format is ideal for
the chessplayer keen to improve their game. While reading you are
continually challenged to answer probing questions - a method that
greatly encourages the learning and practising of vital skills just
as much as the traditional assimilation of chess knowledge.
Carefully selected questions and answers are designed to keep you
actively involved and allow you to monitor your progress as you
learn. * Presents a powerful, aggressive repertoire starting at
move one. * Thorough explanations of typical pawn structures and
piece manoeuvres. * Utilizes an ideal approach to chess study.
