Action Chess: Purdy's 24 Hours Opening Repertoire - 2nd hand

This is where Purdy is different: he really understands the positions he discusses. Naturally, the passage of time has dated some of his analysis, but as you immerse yourself in the material contained in this book, you can't help but include, as Petrosian wrote of Mike's, that this guy hasn't merely memorized the variations: they're etched into his hide... What you have is a book of ideas... Some of the lines given in the French section are not to be found elsewhere. If you study them carefully and do some original thinking, you can be a real openings expert. I have made some corrections, offered some hints and guidelines, but rest assured that I have left much ground unplowed... Trust Purdy. He could, as the economist Frank Knight used to say, further your education.
