This series provides an ideal platform to study chess openings. By
continually challenging the reader to answer probing questions
throughout the book, the Move by Move format greatly encourages the
learning and practicing of vital skills just as much as the
traditional assimilation of opening knowledge. Carefully selected
questions and answers are designed to keep you actively involved
and allow you to monitor your progress as you learn. This is an
excellent way to study any chess opening and at the same time
improve your general chess skills and knowledge. The Petroff
Defense is a solid and reliable way to meet 1 e4. It has a strong
reputation and has been employed regularly by many grandmasters,
most notably former world champions Anatoly Karpov and Vladimir
Kramnik. By choosing counterattack instead of defense as early as
the second move, Black immediately avoids many favorite weapons for
White, including the Ruy Lopez, Italian Game, Scotch Game and a
number of daunting gambits. This practical advantage for those
playing Black in the Open Games cannot be underestimated. In this
book, International Master Cyrus Lakdawala invites you to join him
in studying all the important lines in the Petroff. Using
illustrative games, he explains the main positional and tactical
ideas for both sides, provides answers to all the key questions and
tells you everything you need to know about successfully playing
the Petroff Defense. *Essential guidance and training with the
Petroff *Provides repertoire options for Black *Utilizes an ideal
approach to chess study
