The Modern Benoni (1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 c5 3. d5 e6) is one of Black's most
dynamic queen's pawn openings. From the third move Black strives to create a
permanent imbalance in the pawn structure, with exciting results. Both players
must be utterly fearless in carrying out their plans; in the Benoni he who
hesitates, is lost! It is therefore not surprising that this opening features in
the repertoires of such uncompromising players as Veselin Topalov, Nick De
Firmian and Lev Psakhis, and was popular with Garry Kasparov and John Nunn in
their younger days. This book considers every important variation, with
particular emphasis on those that readers are likely to encounter in their own
games.
