Chess Structures

First of all, the cover of the book is simply superb.The content is very instructive.It's basically a one stop guide to many of the major chess openings,how to deal with them and how to play them successfully.The most important factors concerning each position are written in accordance with the author's experience(and studying of more than 20000 games).The annotations are heavy in the most instructive moment of the book,but lighter when its just the won endgame/decisive advantage scenario.I really hope a 'Part 2' of this book comes out concerning(as many reviewers have said) the McCutcheon and Burn Variations of the French,Exchange Ruy/Berlin,Tromp,Semi-Slav Gambits and such openings.This book has been a pleasure to read and learn from.

Marcelo Rios has come out with an authentic textbook on openings.It systematically answers the question: how will the pawn structure appear after I take up a particular opening?Then Rios answers with well-illustrated games what prospects the two sides have in a given pawn structure.The purpose of the treatise is clearly outlined and then achieved.Highly recommended for tournament players.
