Practical Guide to Berlin Protection

The book of the international master, experienced coach and chess journalist Luis Bernal is devoted to Berlin defense, which was particularly popular after its successful application by Vladimir Kramnik in a match for the title of 2000 world champion against Harry Kasparov.
Not only the legendary "Berlin endgot" is considered, but also a full range of other, "anti-Berlin" capabilities. The author tried not to overload the work with detailed options, but to give more ideas and typical solutions.
The book consists of three parts: the section of theory, approximate parties with comments and a set of typical positions on characteristic topics. Today, Berlin defense is a permanent guest in super -tournaments and is included in the repertoire of most of the strongest grandmasters of the world. A special and constant love for this debut is nourished by the world champion Magnus Carlsen.
