Ideal for those wanting to understand the basics of the Pirc/Modern. The very closely linked Pirc and Modern Defenses are dynamic systems that are favored by ambitious, counter-attacking players.

Throughout the book there are plenty of notes, tips and warnings to guide the improving player, while important strategies, ideas and tactics for both sides are clearly illustrated.
