Chessbook - Alexander Kalifman - Opening for White According to Kramnik 1.Nf3 Book 1

The first volume of the extremely popular series "Opening for White According to Kramnik". Volume 1 covers the Old Indian Defence, Anti-Gruenfeld, and less popular lines of the King's Indian Defence. The first part analyses 1.Nf3 Nf6 2.c4 d6 3.d4, where Black delays the development of his bishop to g7, or prepares it for another deployment altogether, for example after e7-e5 and Bf8-e7. These opening set-ups have long had the reputation of being solid, but with not so good prospects for Black. The second part deals with 1.Nf3 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 where Black follows up with 3...d5. Thus he emphasizes that he does not intend to play the KID and he invites his opponent to enter the main lines of the Gruenfeld Defence.
