Description
The Reti opening has been most popular in the most recent years. In his 'Modernized Reti', Adrien shows how this refined 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, tricky and dynamic way to play as White, Adrien will surely show you the way in his first book for Thinkers Publishing!
Reviews / Votes
The focus is on sound, strong and interesting opening ideas and further plans, rather than on giving complete games.I have no hesitation in warmly recommending The Modernized Reti to you; after all, I am already finding it to be really useful myself! Blog Post #29: Refreshing Reading; GM Paul Motwani The Modernized Reti offers cutting-edge variations, sharp analysis with ample novelties, pleasant text, a knowledgeable author who practices what he preaches and a full repertoire. You can't ask for much more than that! GM Glean Flear NIC YB 2018 One of the most welcome developments in the chess world the past years has been the emergence of the Belgian publishing firm Thinkers Publishing. The Modernized Reti, by Grandmaster Adrien Demuth is arguably the best book available on a sophisticated opening repertoire for White based on the first move 1.Nf3, typically followed by c4 an a kingside fianchetto. The author's enthusiam for this subject is infectious and he communicates well with the reader in what could have otherwise been a dry book. I give the Modernized Reti a strong recommendation. IM John Donaldson August 2020.More details
