Chess Praxis is a superb collection of Aron Nimzowitsch’s best games annotated by the great man himself, but it is even more than that. Nimzowitsch and his hypermodern ideas had a huge influence on modern chess thinking. Nimzowitsch first expounded his views in My System. In his follow-up Chess Praxis he demonstrated and explained how his concepts worked in his own games.
