The Grünfeld is an exciting and dynamic answer to 1 d4, and has become very popular at all levels of chess. The Grünfeld very much relies on the principles of the hypermodern school of Black allows White to erect an impressive-looking centre on the assumption that in the long run it could prove to be more of a liability than an asset. Play often becomes very complex and tactical, one of the reasons the Grünfeld appeals to ambitious players.

In this volume, opening expert Yelena Dembo  produces a comprehensive and yet workable repertoire for Black, offering a solution against each of White's tries, whether it's a critical main line or a tricky sideline. After reading this book, you will have the required knowledge and confidence to begin playing the Grünfeld in your own games.
