Written bay Endre Vegh, an International Chess Master and coach, Starting Out: Modern Benoni discusses the Modern Benoni, one of Black's most creative and aggressive defenses to the queen's pawn opening, which has been put to good use by such great players as Mikhail Tal, Bobby Fischer and Garry Kasparov. Allowing Black to create a drastic position imbalance from the beginning, it offers the chance for great advances but requires that both players press ahead boldly as to hesitate where the Modern Benoni is involved is sure to inspire disaster. Illustrating its points and examples with sample games and chessboard diagrams, Starting Out: Modern Benoni is an excellent self-teaching tool and a highly recommended resource for avid chess players of intermediate to advanced skill level.
