Grandmaster Repertoire 11 - Beating 1.d4 Sidelines by Boris Avrukh

Un libro muy esperado de la editorial qualitychess ya esta disponible para regalarte estas navidades. El GM Boris Avrukh experto teórico y autor de los bestsellers dedicados al repertorio de blancas con d4 o la defensa grunfeld ataca de nuevo con un libro de 504 páginas! centrado en buscar un antídoto para las negras contra todas aquellas líneas secundarias que el blanco elige tras 1d4, cubriendo tanto 1.d4 d5 como 1.d4 Nf6. (trompowsky, london...) que tantos problemas ocasionan especialmente en el ajedrez amateur por su desconocimiento. Sin duda un título que no pasará desapercibido...

Información oficial

Most players are comfortable using their favourite defence against 1.d4 followed by c2-c4, but it is not always easy to find an antidote to the many sidelines at White’s disposal. From the bodacious Blackmar-Diemer Gambit, to the villainous Veresov, to fiendish fianchetto systems to the treacherous Trompowsky, Black must be ready to meet a whole array of slippery systems, each bringing its own unique dangers and challenges.

Grandmaster Repertoire 11 – Beating 1.d4 Sidelines provides a sound and active repertoire against virtually every non-standard opening line at White’s disposal after both 1.d4 d5 and 1.d4 Nf6. Where applicable, Avrukh covers each white system after both 2...e6 and 2...g6, making this book suitable for fans of the Nimzo-Indian, King’s Indian and Grünfeld defences alike.

Boris Avrukh is a grandmaster from Israel. He is an Olympiad gold medalist, former World Junior Champion and analysis partner of World Championship finalists.

Fighting Chess with Hikaru Nakamura A Chess Career in the Footsteps of Bobby Fischer by Karsten Müller, Raymund Stolze

 Nueva aportación de la prestigiosa editorial Olms dedicado al talento americano de ajedrez Hikaru Nakamura, en el mismo formato que en su día esta editorial dedicó a Magnus Carlsen. En esta ocasión el GM especialista en finales Karsten Müller con la ayuda de Lubosh Kavalek analizan la meteórica carrera de Nakamura y su gran ajedrez de lucha como bien dice el título... 

 Información oficial:

This is the very first book to focus exclusively on Hikaru Nakamura, the greatest American chess player since the legendary Robert James Fischer. The book features a prologue penned by Lubomir Kavalek, who was none other than „Bobby’s“ insider and supporter at the „match of the century“ against Boris Spasski in 1972.In this book, grandmaster Karsten Müller from Hamburg and chess journalist Raymund Stolze from Berlin document the 24-year-old’s fascinating journey to the top of world chess. Interestingly, Hikaru was not a typical child prodigy, and at his first Junior World Championships didn’t even make it onto the winners’ podium. Although he won a World Cup medal aged just 13, today he creates true miracles.

Mastering Complex Endgames Practical Lessons on Critical Ideas & Plans by Daniel Naroditsky

Nuevo libro de la editorial newinchess dedicado a los finales realizado por el escritor más joven de la historía del ajedrez, el IM Daniel Naroditsky nacido en el año 1995, que en el año 2007 se proclamó campeón mundial sub12 y que a la edad de 15 años ya publicaba un libro realmente interesante: Mastering Positional Chess. Habrá que estar a esta trabajo sobre la maestría en la complejidad de los finales, un tema siempre menos recurrente en las editoriales pero realmente muy beneficioso para el aprendizaje...

Información oficial

Daniel Naroditsky has done it again! Following 'Mastering Positional Chess' the American chess prodigy has written an instructional book that is at least as ambitious as his acclaimed debut. Daniel has compiled a rich collection of practical endgame examples whose assessments require more than just standard theory.

In his fresh, yet surprisingly mature style, Naroditsky presents:

• lively and entertaining lessons
• crystal clear explanations of ideas and plans
• useful insights into the minds of chess masters
• great practical advice throughout the book
• instructive exercises at the end of each chapter

Naroditsky draws heavily on his own experience as a player and has no problem pointing out his own mistakes. His systematic approach and didactic skills help you to understand rather than just memorize these endings.

Rarely if ever before have the ideas that decide endings been explained so clearly. This book will take your endgame technique to the next level.

Daniel Naroditsky (1995) became the World Under-12 Chess Champion in 2007. With 'Mastering Positional Chess' (2010), he was the youngest published chess author in history. At 15, he became an International Master and participated in the US Chess Championship. He earned his first grandmaster norm in July 2011.
