From a theoretical backwater to a fully blown main line opening,
the rise of the Scandinavian Defence (1 e4 d5) has been nothing
short of meteoric. Over the past fifteen years the Scandinavian has
become more and more popular both at club and Grandmaster level. It
even managed to obtain an ultimate seal of approval when Vishy
Anand employed it in his World Championship match with Garry
Kasparov!
In this book Grandmaster John Emms explains the strategies and
tactics of this dynamic and fashionable opening. Through the use of
model games for both sides, the author provides a thorough
grounding in the key ideas, so that players of all standards can
quickly and confidently begin to use the Scandinavian in their own
games.
This book provides a complete update of Emms's original and
best-selling edition of The Scandinavian, published in 1997. Since
then there have been many new and important discoveries from both
sides of the board, and these are included here.
*Ideal for club and tournament players
