About this product
 
The Queen's Indian is one of Black's most dependable and respected defenses to the queen's pawn opening. It's an established favorite amon world-class Grandmasters such as Vladimir Kramnik, Vishy Anand, Michael Adams and Judit Polgar, not to mention Anatoly Karpov, who has been a loyal Queen's Indian supporter and theory developer for over three decades. Using a hypermodern approach, Black endeavors from the very beginning of the game to control the all-important central squares with pieces rather than using the classical method with pawns. This procedure leads to rich and complex positions that will appeal to aggressive and positional players alike.
