The Scotch Game, one of the oldest openings, was catapulted
back into the limelight due to the enterprise of Garry Kasparov, who
completely rejuvenated it with an abundance of original ideas for
White. As a result, this dynamic opening has once again become popular
at all levels of chess.
In this easy-to-read guide, opening expert John Emms goes back to
basics, studying the essential principles of the Scotch Opening. The
early moves and ideas are introduced and care is taken to explain the
reasoning behind them, something that is often neglected or taken for
granted.
