We have just received from our friends at Mongoose Press in Massachusetts:
The Complete Hedgehog, Volume 1.The Hedgehog is a thoroughly modern defense where concepts and understanding are more important than plain memorization. It can be played against e4, d4 or c4 and is a respected weapon in Black's armory. Tal, Larsen, Karpov and Kasparov, have played this opening. Sergey Shipov draws on decades of experience playing this defense, andhas written much more than a simple opening manual full of variations.Shipov not only explains strategic themes, typical formations and move-order subtleties, along the way he also teaches one of the most important skills in chess: how to evaluate a position.
Garry Kasparov says about
The Complete Hedgehog: "I highly recommend this book because it investigates strategic concepts instead of being limited to mere reactions." Please have a look at
this brilliant book.
