In this book Grandmaster John Emms explains the strategies and tactics of the dynamic and fashionable Scandinavian Defence. Through the use of model games for both sides, the author provides
a thorough grounding in the key ideas, so that players of all standards can quickly and confidently begin to use the Scandinavian in their own games. This book provides a complete update of
Emms's original and best-selling edition of The Scandinavian, published in 1997.
