Book DescriptionHypermodern chess strategy was the single most devastating innovation of the 20th century chess thought. Fueled by such towering figures as Aron Nimzowitsch and Richard Reti, hypermodern ideas forced their way into prominence and blazed the trail for the dynamic adoption by the Soviet chess school of defences such as the King's Indian and the Grunfeld. With both of these championed by Garry Kasparov, arguably the greatest player of all time, it is clear that hypermodern openings and defences are still setting the agenda in the 21st century.

*Assessees the contributions of each major hypermodern figure
* Over 100 annotated Games
* Written by two experts on the hypermodern school

Raymond Keene is an International Grandmaster, who has played top board for England in the Chess Olympiad. He is chess corresponded for The Times and The Spectator. He has written over seventy chess books and was awarded an OBE for services to chess in 1985.
