The Pirc chess opening is more of a counterattack than a defense: Black allows his opponent to occupy the center and provokes a confrontation, trusting in the power of the g7-bishop and the dynamic potential in his position. It is the perfect weapon for players who seek a complex strategic fight with the black pieces.Mihail Marin has been playing the Pirc for more than twenty years, with excellent results. In The Pirc Defence he not only presents his best analysis against all of White's major options, but also shares the strategic insights he has gained through his extensive experience in this opening. Praise for the author's previous work: "Beautifully written and inspirational" - GM Luke McShane"A typically lucid and thorough exposition from perhaps the most insightful and reliable chess author writing today." - GM Jonathan Rowson, New in Chess

Full explanation of the latest theory. The very closely linked Pirc and Modern Defences are dynamic systems that are favoured by ambitious, counter-attacking players. Black plays very much in a hypermodern fashion, allowing White to build an unopposed pawn centre with the idea of plotting its eventual downfall. In this revolutionary book, Grandmaster Joe Gallagher goes back to basics, studying the fundamental principles of the Pirc/Modern and its numerous variations. Throughout the book there are plenty of notes, tips and warnings to guide the improving player, while important strategies, ideas and tactics for both sides are clearly illustrated.

Leading modern exponents include World Championship candidates finalist Jan Timman, American Grandmaster Yasser Seirawan and Britain's Jon Speelman. Here John Nunn, himself, an expert on the Pirc Defence, presents his selection of the most theoretically important recent games.
