Most chess opening books are either too detailed or too shallow. Chess Opening Essentials has exactly the right balance and is an accessible primer and a reference book at the same time. It gives a flavor of how every opening works and points at the various middlegame plans that apply after the opening has ended.

Full of great ideas, clear explanations and instructive games ... I have frequently enjoyed browsing through the beautifully-presented volume. --GM Paul Motwani, The Scotsman
A patzer like me, let alone someone with an Elo under 1700, should not buy a complex monography on the Najdorf before getting this instructive opening book." --Pekka Pakarinen, Suomen Shakki Magazine (Finland)
It is about the basics of the opening, about ensuing middlegame positions, and about the plans one should pursue. Ideal for the club player who wishes to improve." --Nederlands Dagblad
This volume helps beginners to develop a solid understanding of fundamental opening ideas, gives casual players the ability to choose the opening that suits their style and taste, is a tool for club players to test and review their opening repertoire, as well as a reference book to which advanced players keep returning. The authors do not propagate forcing tactical variations to be memorized mechanically, but explain what you should actually be trying to achieve when playing the opening of your choice. By highlihting important moves and key positions in color, Chess Opening Essentials helps you to get out of any opening in good shape and gives you a foundation on which to build your repertoire.
