previous surveys. Titled players, correspondence players and club players shed
their light on opening developments and search together for the truth. With
contributions by Pavel Smirnov, Georgy Timoshenko, José Vilela, the incredible
Bulgarian talent Kirprian Berbatov and many others. Sosonko’s Corner This Corner is fully dedicated to the memory of the
recently deceased David Bronstein. Sosonko takes a closer look at King David´s
contributions to opening theory, which reveal many aspects of the exceptionally
fertile mind of the former vice-World Champion. The story is, of course,
brimming with anecdotes that no-one but Sosonko could tell you. Book Reviews A treat for bloodthirsty players, this Review Section!
Glenn Flear pronounces his verdict on Everyman´s new ‘Dangerous Weapons’
series: on the Nimzo-Indian (by Emms, Ward and Palliser) and on the Sicilian
(Emms & Palliser). Even more dangerous may be the subject of Hannes
Langrock: the dreaded Morra Gambit! Flear overcomes his doubts on this gambit
and commends at least the work by the young German theoretician. For slightly
lower-rated readers Flear recommends the prolific John Watson’s new project for
Gambit, ‘Mastering the Chess Openings: Volume 1’. 31 Surveys Sicilian Defence - Najdorf Variation 7...Qb6 - Olthof Sicilian Defence - Najdorf Variation 6.Be3 - Vladimirov Sicilian Defence - Velimirovic Attack 6.Bc4 e6 7.Be3 -
