The Modern Defence is not a solid opening. In fact, on some level
maybe it's not an opening at all. It's the Wild West of chess
opening theory, a safe haven for true chess lovers who are just
spoiling for a fight. The structures that can result are almost
unlimited in their variety and the potential for dynamic piece play
is also huge. You need real passion to play it, and also the
ability to work hard at the board. But it's also played at the very
top: even the names Carlsen and Kramnik occur sometimes in these
pages! This book is primarily intended for players who want to play
the position after 1.e4 g6 2. d4 Bg7 for Black. However, and
inevitably for the computer age, there is also a strong focus on
chess truth. That means there are also some recommendations for
White that are not yet well-known in mainstream opening theory, and
that the book has something to offer everyone.
