This book was written in 2006 and is published by Gambit Publications.

There is a free sample of it on Kindle.

The introduction covers the logic of the Queen's Indian, mentioning it is a hypermodern opening, which struggles to control the center using pieces rather than pawns. It is also a light-square based opening, which contests the d5 and e4 squares in particular.

Chapters 1 to 3 cover 4.g3 lines

Chapters 4 to 5 cover 4.a3 lines

Chapter 6 covers 4.Nc3!? lines
