Subject: repertoire book for Black covering Nimzo-Indian, Queen's Indian, Catalan?
|
Is there a repertoire book for Black covering the 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 openings for Black, presenting a repertoire against 3.Nc3, 3.Nf3, and 3.g3? There are books covering Nimzo for Black, but I think treatment of the Nimzo and QID should be integrated because of the possible transpositions, for example 3.Nc3 Bb4 4.Nf3 b6 and 3.Nf3 b6 4.Nc3 Bb4.

Why stop there? Your ENTIRE opening repertoire should be integrated. Read my chapter on formation-based openings for more info, and read the chapter on how to play the opening for why you should never need an opening book beyond what the computers give you. -- Ray Gordon, Author http://www.cybersheet.com/library.html Four FREE books on how to get laid by beautiful women http://www.cybersheet.com/chess.html Free Chess E-book: Train Like A Chess Champion Don't buy anything from experts who won't debate on a free speech forum.

Khalifman wrote a book a few years back, _The Opening for Black According to Karpov_, which is a complete repertoire book based on teh Caro-Kann and the Nimzo/Queen's Indian complex. It also has liens against the Catalan (but advocates 1...e5 against the English rather than trying to transpose to the Nimzoindian). It's a pretty good book, and I've played its Nimzoindian lines in correspondence chess with fair results. There's a new book by Alburt, Dzindzichashvili, and (I think) Perelshteyn), called _Chess Openings For Black, Explained_, which is supposed to be a complete repertoire based on the Nimzo/Queen's Indian, Accelerated Dragon, and Symmetrical English. I haven't seen it yet, though. -ed g. -- Caissa have mercy on a miserable patzer: http://altergoniff.blogspot.com
