Description

Beating the Queen’s Gambit – Indian Style! 
by Renier Castellanos

This book advocates the 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 d5 move order for Black – with 3.Nc3 Bb4 having been covered in the sister volume Playing the Nimzo-Indian. By waiting for the knight to appear on f3 before transposing to a Queen’s Gambit, Black reduces White’s options.

Spanish GM Renier Castellanos completes his cutting-edge repertoire for Black against 1.d4, with the Vienna Variation (4.Nc3 dxc4) and Catalan (4.g3 dxc4) the biggest topics. This book also provides thorough guidance against all of White’s significant alternatives on moves 2-4.

With thoughtful explanations backed up by precise analysis, Beating the Queen’s Gambit – Indian Style! provides everything you need to handle 1.d4 Nf6 variations where White avoids the Nimzo-Indian Defence.

This is such a good book. The quality of commentary and explanation of moves and themes is very high - the best I have seen for some time. The analysis and commentary is practically focussed, often making reference to the relative ease of playing black in given positions at a Human level, even if the computer monster may suggest still a slight edge for white. It is a great example of modern analysis and commentary, recognising in certain positions that the computer's evaluation of say +0.2 requires perfect play from white in unnatural ways - which is very unlikely to happen! I have a strong record using this repertoire and I'm very excited to play it further over coming months. Well done Quality Chess - fantastic.
