Reseña del editor

The Caro-Kann Defence has a justified reputation for reliability, making it an attractive choice for players with a preference for positional play. However in recent years many new dangerous ideas have been discovered for White which makes a study of the theoretical main lines imperative for competitive players. In this first volume, former world champion Anatoly Karpov, a life-long adherent of the Caro-Kann, undertakes a detailed examination of Classical Systems against the Caro-Kann which commence 1 e4 c6 2 d4 d5 3 Nc3, and also the Advance Variation 3 e5. With this approach, precision and good timing is vital and can promise Black a successful defence, counter-chances and even a strategical advantage.
