Queen's Indian Defence by Bogdan Lalic

Queen's Indian Defence by Bogdan Lalic

Since its popularisation by Aron Nimzowitsch and the Hypermodern School in the 1920s, the Queen's Indian Defense has become one of Black's most reliable defenses to 1 d4. It enables Black speedy development of his forces and active piece play against the White centre and is an ideal companion to its close relation, the Nimzo-Indian Defense. Nowadays the Queen's Indian is a cornerstone in the repertoire of many of the world's leading players, including Jan Timman, Viswanathan Anand and Anatoly Karpov. In this book, Grandmaster Lalic, an expert on both the White and Black sides of the Queen's Indian, provides a thorough survey of the main lines. Particular emphasis is given to currently fashionable variations that the reader is likely to encounter in his or her own games. Bogdan Lalic became a grandmaster in 1988, and since then has been one of the most active and successful players on the European tournament scene. He now lives near London with his wife Susan, who is a women's international master.

Jacob Aagaard is a young International Master from Denmark who has earned himself a deserved reputation as an industrious and no-nonsense chess author. His previous works for Everyman include Queen's Indian Defence and Meeting 1 d4. He also authored Excelling at Chess, which was very well received by reviewers and the chess public alike.
