Ajedrez. Chess. The Cutting Edge 2 - Sicilian Najdorf 6.Be3 - Milos Pavlovic (Cartoné)

Ahead of the Curve in the English Attack

This book is part of a new series from Quality Chess examining the cutting edge of opening theory. The idea is to identify the most important theoretical battlegrounds and then analyse as deeply as possible in search of improvements.

Thus the reader will be ahead of the current state-of-the-art, rather than lagging behind trying to memorize old games.

The Cutting Edge 2 considers the Sicilian Najdorf – a favourite opening of ambitious players at every level. This book concentrates on lines where White chooses 6.Be3, heading for the English Attack. The variations covered are:

• Topalov: 6...e6 7.f3 b5 8.Qd2 b4 9.Na4 Nbd7

The Najdorf with 6.Bg5 will be covered at a later stage in The Cutting Edge: Sicilian Najdorf 6.Bg5.

Milos Pavlovic is a highly experienced Serbian grandmaster and former Yugoslav Champion, whose analysis is regularly featured in New in Chess and Chess Informant.

"A serious chess book for very experienced players who will be able to appreciate the depth of the analysis and implement the improvements given in the razor sharp lines."

Sean Marsh

"It is clear that Pavlovic has invested immense effort in making the books as comprehensive, up-to-date and helpful as possible... These books can be given the highest recommendation to serious over-the-board and correspondence players who want to have the best available information on the chosen variations in a well organised and well-packaged form. *****"
