Description

Aron Nimzowitsch's groundbreaking works are essential reading for any serious chess player. His most famous books, My System and Chess Praxis, present his innovative theories on prophylaxis, blockades, and pawn-structures, providing profound insights that have shaped the game. In these two volumes, Nimzowitsch shares his own games, demonstrating how he applied his ideas in practice. While some of his views may not stand the test of time, they remain valuable for deepening understanding and broadening one's play. This edition includes additional essays, such as The Blockade and On the History of the Chess Revolution 1911-1914, offering a comprehensive look at Nimzowitsch's work. Carefully translated from the original German, these works showcase Nimzowitsch's unique writing style, which has been preserved for this new edition.
