The Complete Benoni - 2nd hand

Winning with Black is no easy matter, especially against a solid queen’s pawn player. This is a problem Lev Psakhis faced in the last round of the 1980 Soviet Championship. He opted for the Benoni, and the rest is history!

This dynamic defence is about as close to total warfare as you get in modern chess. The likelihood of exchanges and a quick draw is minimized from the start; both players must carry out their plans with the utmost vigour, or risk being swamped.

• Thorough, up-to-the-minute coverage of all the key lines
• A deadly weapon for club players
• Written by a leading exponent of the Benoni

Lev Psakhis is one of the world’s leading grandmasters. He has twice finished equal first in the super-strong Soviet Championship, defeating Garry Kasparov en route en 1981. His first book for Batsford, The Complete French, was a huge success and received outstanding reviews in the chess press.
