Summary: nice legs - shame about the face
Review: This is a well laid out attractive book. It is obvious that alot of work has gone in to it.You can tell the Thinkers Press take alot of pride in their books.. What is disappointing is the opening itself. I knew little of this opening before I got the book..the statistics given for the variation 1/d4 Nf6 2/Nc3 d5 3/Bg5 c5 gives, based on 159 games, 25 % wins for white and 40 % for black ! Not very encouraging for a supposed repatoire weapon
