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 practising 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 Catalan
is a solid opening system in which White combines the Queen's
Gambit with a kingside fianchetto. In recent years it has become an
increasingly popular choice at all levels of chess, and elite
grandmasters such as Vladimir Kramnik have developed major new
ideas for both White and Black. The Catalan can lead to a wide
variety of positions, open or closed, tactical or strategic, that
will suit players of all styles. In this book, Grandmaster Neil
McDonald invites you to join him in studying the Catalan and its
many variations. McDonald shares his experience and knowledge of
the Catalan, examines the main plans for both sides and provides
answers to the key questions. ----- * Essential guidance and
training with the Catalan --- * Important ideas absorbed by
continued practice --- * Utilizes an ideal approach to chess study
