John Watson / Paperback / Published 1999
"International Master John Watson is a serious
chess theorist and author with a bevy of good books to his credit. His books exhibit
a care and attention to detail that is often lacking from other popular authors. This
book surpasses even Watson's previous high standards.
Secrets of Modern Chess Strategy seeks to take up where Nimzowitsch's My System
left off. Nimzowitsch's book is often considered to be a seminal work that charted a
new course in chess thought. Watson, who believes that modern chess thought is
radically different than that of the best players of an earlier era, discusses the
various issues raised by Nimzowitsch in the first part of his book, while the second
explores modern methods and praxis." (Randy Bauer, who reviewed it with 9.5/10)
