Dieses interessante Theoriewerk erschien im Dezember 2017 bei Thinkers Publishing in Belgien. 440 Seiten, sehr gut erhalten.
The Reti opening has been quite popular in the most recent years. In the "Modernized Reti", Adrien explains how this subtle opening needs to be handled. With many transpositions into different types of positions, it is one of the richest choices White has when starting the game. If you are looking for a refined, positional and dynamic way to play as White, Adrien will show you the way in his first book for Thinkers Publishing!
