Reti Opening for Buffs (Chess Openings for Buffs)

A collection of 28 Reti Opening games, annotated move-by-move, featuring the likes of Kasparov, Carlsen, Kramnik, Anand, Tal and other chess champions and top grandmasters. Emphasis is laid on understanding concepts, rather than concrete variations, and explanations are short and easy, so everyone can benefit. Ideal for learning your favourite opening, the book is also ideal for comprehending the deeper aspects of chess strategy. It should be noted, that not only the narrower definition of the Reti, featuring 1. Nf3 d5 2. c4, is included, but also games from the wider notion of the Reti as simply 1. Nf3, or featuring a knight on f3, also known as the Zukertort, as well as King's Indian Attack games, which is a subsystem of the Reti.
