New In Chess Yearbook 60 (Hardbound - Rare )

For sale is New In Chess Yearbook 60 — 2001 — Like New Condition — HardboundVolume 60 is another milestone number and the theme — "Expert Explanations" — reflects something that had become one of the series' greatest strengths: not just showing you the moves, but having the right specialist explain exactly why something that looked harmless suddenly became dangerous, or why a line that seemed refuted is actually very much alive.Mikhail Golubev, one of the most respected Dragon experts in the world, reports on something he watched happen under his very eyes — the transformation of 12.Kb1 from what looked like a harmless move into a universal weapon for White against the Yugoslav Attack. When a Dragon specialist tells you a move has gone from innocuous to dangerous, tournament players and Dragon devotees everywhere should pay attention. This is precisely the kind of early warning that made subscribing to this series so valuable.Then Alexey Dreev — one of the deepest theoretical workers of his generation — is called in to explain the latest developments in the highly complex Anti-Moscow Gambit, first employed in 1998. Three years of grandmaster practice distilled by one of the players who knew it best, presented on what the cover aptly calls a silver platter.And Tibor Karolyi returns to what the cover charmingly describes as an "old teenage love" — 3...c5 in the Queen's Gambit Accepted, a line he fell for fifteen years earlier and went on to become a leading expert on. That combination of personal affection and deep expertise produces the best kind of opening survey.Beyond these three featured stories the volume delivers more than 25 additional opening surveys across all systems, with the Forum and Sosonko's Corner alongside.Condition: Like New — hardbound, boards clean, pages bright and completely unmarked, binding firm throughout.
