The Nimzo-Indian Defence: Essentials (Black Repertoire)

By Theo van Stratum

A Black repertoire built around the Nimzo-Indian Defence (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4). Includes meeting the classical Rubinstein Variation (4.e3), the Samisch Variation (4.a3) with its thematic bishop pair versus doubled pawns, the Classical Variation (4.Qc2) that sidesteps the doubled pawns altogether, and the sharper Leningrad Variation (4.Bg5).
