We derived great pleasure from wntmg this book. As frequent practitioners of the defence under discussion we were surprised and delighted to discover new sources of beauty and hidden secrets.
In conformity w ith the rest of the 'W inning w ith... ' series we analysed complete games and tried to illuminate the underlying principles of the
opening. In addition we explain how these influence the course of the whole game. We chose games with independent aesthetic wort h in order to bring joy to readers who 'only' want to enjoy chess. At the same time, we have analysed every impo rt ant v ariat ion and have cit ed among the selected games several which are entirely new to chess literature.
We hope that you will enjoy both the games and the analysis. A thorough study of this work will endow the serious player with great confidence in his understanding of the Queen's I ndian Defence.
