Description

My System is at the top of a very short list of chess classics.

Nimzowitsch's ideas have had a profound influence on modern chess thinking.

Most chess masters will at some point have studied Nimzowitsch's work, and not to have read My System is by many regarded as a shocking gap in a chess player's education.The problem for an English-speaking audience has been that My System was written in German more than eighty years ago.

The commonly-used contemporary translations have sounded dated for some time, and were always questionable: the translators frequently toned down many passages, fearing Nimzowitsch's biting wit would be too controversial.This edition uses a brand-new translation that recreates the author's original intentions.

For the first time an English-speaking audience can appreciate the true nature of a famous chess book.
