Welcome to Volume 2 of Cheparinov's 1.d4!.In the second part of the series, I amsharing my knowledge about the Slav Defense. I am confident that the bookcontains many new and interesting ideas and I have tried to provide you with thebest practical options. Objectively speaking Black looks good in many lines butin practice things may look different. While I cannot promise you a bigadvantage in each line, I do believe you will have the best practical chancesduring the game. Writing the second volume was verychallenging for me. The Slav encompasses a wide but solid body of theory. Blackhas plenty of options and finding advantages and practical chances was not easyat all. In any case I believe that chess players from amateurs to very strongplayers will appreciate this book. While the Covid pandemic gave me a lot offree time to concentrate on the book, I am very happy to see that manytournaments are back. This means that my book can be useful, and you mayactually be able to apply some of the ideas in your games.  The best way to use this book is to first examinethe lines on an actual board and then check them with an engine. I hope thismethod of study increases your understanding of the positions that arise fromthe Slav. This book can be a very important starting point for building your1.d4 repertoire.Ivan CheparinovMarch 2022
