Riassunto

The Scotch Game is an ideal opening weapon for White: it’s ambitious and yet totally sound; it’s also easy to learn but leads to a wide variety of positions. It was a particular favourite for Garry Kasparov, who invigorated it with a number of major discoveries to make it an opening to be feared throughout the chess world.

In this book, Yelena Dembo takes a modern-day look at the Scotch Game. Using illustrative games and drawing upon her own considerable experience in this opening, Dembo provides thorough coverage of both the critical main lines and the tricky sidelines, outlining the key tactical and positional ideas for White and Black.

Recensione

The authors have in my opinion concentrated their efforts exactly where they were needed, as those lines regularly favoured by strong players are given the greatest attention. So the book is relevant, modern, comprehensive, balanced and rigorous. I recommend it wholeheartedly for serious players who get the Scotch in their games. --Glenn Flear, New in Chess Yearbook

Dembo and Palliser each enjoy a reputation for being particularly conscientious authors. This latest tandem effort will only enhance this. Everything Scotch players from club level to Grandmaster need is accurately presented up to the end of 2010. Highly recommended --John Donaldson, jeremysilman.com

For the serious student, this book will give you all the ideas and games one needs to thoroughly prepare for the next encounter. And after all, isn't that what we all want? --Florida Chess
