Welcome to Volume 2 of Cheparinov's 1.d4!.
In the second part of the series, I am
sharing my knowledge about the Slav Defense. I am confident that the book
contains many new and interesting ideas and I have tried to provide you with the
best practical options. Objectively speaking Black looks good in many lines but
in practice things may look different. While I cannot promise you a big
advantage in each line, I do believe you will have the best practical chances
during the game.
Writing the second volume was very
challenging for me. The Slav encompasses a wide but solid body of theory. Black
has plenty of options and finding advantages and practical chances was not easy
at all. In any case I believe that chess players from amateurs to very strong
players will appreciate this book. While the Covid pandemic gave me a lot of
free time to concentrate on the book, I am very happy to see that many
tournaments are back. This means that my book can be useful, and you may
actually be able to apply some of the ideas in your games.
The best way to use this book is to first examine
the lines on an actual board and then check them with an engine. I hope this
method of study increases your understanding of the positions that arise from
the Slav. This book can be a very important starting point for building your
1.d4 repertoire.
