The Tarrasch Defence is a highly ambitious way to play against 1.d4. Former Russian Champion Alexey Bezgodov, one of the world's greatest experts, and has conducted a deeply researched journey into the positional structures and the variations of the Tarrasch. He has injected his main line, the neglected Kasparov System, with a lot of surprising ideas and presents new ways to handle White's offbeat variations. Bezgodov also shows that quite a few lines for Black with a bad reputation are actually good. He teaches how great fighters like Boris Spassky, Paul Keres and Garry Kasparov have exploited the many dynamic possibilities of the Tarrasch Defence, and he includes plenty of practical exercises. This is a must-have book for fearless players who wish to surprise their opponents and who like to play aggressively with Black - but only with a reliable opening with a sound positional foundation.
