Imperfect Chess Playbook Volume 1 - Sean Nelson - Bog

The Imperfect Chess Playbook answers the simple question: What move should White make?

OK, it is a little more than that. It is the first part of a White repertoire designed to play and defeat beginner, casual, or intermediate club players.

This book uses research from games played by lower level opponents and seeks out the types of mistakes they make, and then builds a plan on how to capitalize on those mistakes. Of course the book also shows how to handle things when Black plays properly.

This is only a first volume of a series and it starts with a specific common starting position, the Two Knights Defence, that takes place after the three most common responses by club level and beginning players playing Black.
