Most chess openings have been around for centuries; the first book
on the Ruy Lopez was written in 1561. Not so the Jobava System.
This is a thoroughly modern opening that has only achieved
prominence in the last decade or so. It is named after the Georgian
chess visionary Baadur Jobava, a highly imaginative and creative
grandmaster. The Jobava System is based around the opening moves 1
d4 d5 2 Nc3 Nf6 3 Bf4. For many years this was considered to be a
quiet and unassuming backwater of chess theory. No longer!Thanks to
the efforts of Jobava and others this system has been honed into a
fierce attacking weapon. As this opening is so new the correct
defensive methods are not well understood. This makes the system
extremely dynamic and dangerous.In this book, Simon Williams (the
Ginger GM) delves deep into the Jobava and offers up a complete
repertoire based on this exciting new system. The advantages are
clear: - There is very little existing theory- Black cannot play
safely on "auto-pilot"- It is fresh and it's fun!Williams is well
known for his swashbuckling, attacking play and his entertaining
and instructive commentary. He is your ideal guide to the Jobava
System.
