The Sicilian Najdorf is without doubt one of Black's best defences to 1 e4 - its soundness cannot be questioned. Yet its main attraction is its dynamism, which allows Black to play for a win without undue risk. This is why it was favoured by Bobby Fischer and Garry Kasparov, and why it continues to be immensely popular at all levels of chess. In this book, Richard Palliser presents a creative repertoire for Black within the Najdorf. The aim is to cause White as many problems as possible, while sidestepping some of the enormous theory associated with the Najdorf - a perfect solution for the practical player. Palliser offers answers for Black against all of White's options, arming you with enough knowledge and confidence to begin playing the Sicilian Najdorf in your own games. This title offers a repertoire for Black in the Sicilian Najdorf. It is written by a renowned Najdorf expert. It is packed with new ideas and analysis.
