BEZGODOV - The liberated bishop defence
In many 1.d4 openings, Black has trouble getting his bishop on c8 into play. Former Russian Chess Champion Alexey Bezgodov presents a radical solution to this nagging problem; liberate your bishop right away and put it on f5 on the second move!
Play 2...Bf5! against either 2.c4 or 2.Nf3 will surprise your opponent and is also a great way to support your development, because the bishop takes control of the important square e4. If White does not immediately take decisive action, then within a move or two he can relinquish any hopes on an opening advantage.
Alexey Bezgodov has found some great antidotes to White's most dangerous reactions in sharp and attractive lines. To test your understanding of his system he has included more than 100 exercises. After studying the fresh ideas and the clear explanations presented in The Liberated Bishop Defencechess players of almost every strength will enjoy the flexibility of a surprising, effective and universal weapon against 1.d4.

COX - Dealing with d4 deviations
Après Play the Open Games as Black (1.e4 e5 sans Fb5), Anti-sicilians, a guide for black (Sicilienne sans Cf3-d4) et quelques autres, voici un nouveau représentant de la famille 'Que faire quand le peigne-cul d'en face refuse d'entrer dans la défense que vous aviez préparée'. Comme son titre l'indique, celui-ci est consacré aux débuts du pion-dame, mais il faut dire tout de suite que son contenu (et partant sa cible) est un peu flou. La plus grande part est évidemment destinée au joueur de Nimzo/Ouest-indienne (attaque Torre (2.Cf3, 3.Fg5) ou Hebden-Torre (2.Cf3, 3.c3, 4.Fg5), système de Londres (2.Cf3, 3.Ff4), système Colle (2.Cf3, 3.e3), Trompowsky (2.Fg5) ou Veresov (2.Cc3, 3.Fg5)) - mais comme une partie de ces lignes (Londres, Colle ou Veresov) peut aussi intéresser le zélateur de la Slave ou l'adepte du Gambit-dame, l'auteur a choisi d'inclure à leur intention de courts chapitres sur la Pseudo-Tromp (a.k.a. ouverture du fou-dame, 1.d4 d5 2.Fg5) et le Blackmar-Diemer (1.d4 d5 2.e4). Et plus étrangement, il achève son ouvrage sur un chapitre consacré aux variantes anti-Benoni - ou plutôt anti-Benoni différée, i.e. 1.d4 Cf6 2.c4 e6 3.Cf3 c5 sans 4.d5. Bref, il a essayé de ratisser large, et beaucoup de ses lecteurs auraient peut-être préféré un travail plus approfondi sur certaines lignes... Pour le contenu, il s'agit évidemment d'une formule répertoire (une seule ligne de jeu noire est conseillée pour chaque variante blanche - par exemple 2.e6 contre la Trompowsky) traitée dans le même style que Play the Najdorf Scheveningen Style, c'est-à-dire sans parties complètes. Dommage...

Semkov - Building a Reti Repertoire
The English Opening is very popular nowadays, but 1.c4 e5! is a serious challenge and not to everyone's taste. Here comes 1.Nf3, with the idea to transfer the game into the English with c2-c4 to follow. The only hurdle on that path is 1...d5. Then White is at a crossroads. 2.c4 allows 2...d4 3.b4, while 2.e3 is an attempt to deny ...d4. Black can revive the threat with 2...c5, and again, White has a choice. 3.c4 d4 4.b4! leads to the Blumenfeld with reversed colours. Or he can continue to fight against ...d4 with 3.b3. White's decisions on the second and third move depends on the way he wants to meet the Queen's Gambit and the Slav/Meran/Chebanenko. Semkov covers in detail the different options, and also devotes several chapters on 1.Nf3 d5 2.e3 Nf6 3.c4 c6 and 3...e6 4.b3! (avoiding the innocuous version of the QGA after 4.Nc3 dxc4). There is another chapter on 1.Nf3 d5 2.e3 Nf6 3.c4 dxc4, where the absence of Nc3 allows White to get some pressure by refraining from d2-d4. 244 pages
