My System Hardback
by Aron Nimzowitsch
Hardback
Description
My System is at the top of a very short list of chess classics.
Nimzowitsch’s ideas have had a profound influence on modern chess thinking.
Most chess masters will at some point have studied Nimzowitsch’s work, and not to have read My System is by many regarded as a shocking gap in a chess player’s education. The problem for an English-speaking audience has been that My System was written in German more than eighty years ago.
The commonly-used contemporary translations have sounded dated for some time, and were always questionable: the translators frequently toned down many passages, fearing Nimzowitsch’s biting wit would be too controversial. This edition uses a brand-new translation that recreates the author’s original intentions.
For the first time an English-speaking audience can appreciate the true nature of a famous chess book.
