Kurzbeschreibung
In the opening, each player tries to control the center, set up a flexible pawn structure, develop the pieces rapidly and harmoniously, sometimes even go for direct attack. But there are so many complicated variations -- how can you memorize them all?
You can't -- and you don't have to! If you understand the basic goals of the opening you're playing, you will know which moves fit logically into its overall scheme. This classic, best-selling volume, now completely reset in modern algebraic notation, explains everything you need to know to play the opening sensibly and successfully.
Reuben Fine, an International Grandmaster, is one of the world's top players and a leading theoretician of chess. He is the author of over half a dozen books, including the definitive Basic Chess Endings.

Bobby Fischer, when asked by a young boy how to improve the boy's chess, picked up a copy of "The Ideas Behind the Chess Openings," and advised the boy to "read this book. This book has everything. It's one of the best chess books, and can definitely help to improve your game." Whenever the legendary Fischer speaks of how to improve one's chess, I have just a word of advice: Listen.
In comparing the 1943 edition of this book to the more recent 1989/90 works, it appears that most of the revisions involve the Indian and Sicilian Defenses. For good reason: These are still the overwhelming choices of many an international grandmaster to 1 d4 and 1 e4, respectively. Other than that, the text is about the same. In fact, the more recent editions even have a few misspellings and caption-reference errors to boot.
Still, I think that's a trivial reason for chess players to shy away from this book. The title states the principle: As long as you understand the IDEAS of the openings you play, you will be ready for nearly any surprises--curve balls, if I may--that your opponent might have in store. It made sense in 1943; it still makes sense today.
I would recommend this book to those in the beginner-to-intermediate range. I believe that, once you understand the ideas of your preferred openings, then and only then should you begin to intensify your studies of opening theory. After that, I feel that everything will fall into place naturally.

I don't know if some of the lines in this book are outdated, and some important lines are absent; but it doesn't matter much. This book does not attempt to be a comprehensive bible of openings. It is exactly what the title says, the IDEAS behind the openings. It teaches the beginner WHY the opening moves are made, not just what they are. With these concepts in mind, the new player can start developing his own tactics based on sound premises. This book is mandatory reading for beginners.

It's not that this book is bad - it's just that it's not very good either. Originally written in the 1940's, it has been updated by the author, and is now in third edition. The biggest problem is that there are still many lines which are analyzed in-depth which you simply won't see - and that's not good if you're new to openings. Also, as mentioned in a previous review, the Author discounts some lines, which have undergone a resurgence in recent time, and *are* now used.
Having said that, the book has been updated for algebraic notation, and is laid out in a reasonably clear and logical manner.
All in all, there are better books out there, Gabor Kallai's Basic Chess Openings, and More Basic Chess Openings are excellent references, and cover all modern openings in detail. They were also written in 1997, which means they cover the sort of lines you will see at club and tournament levels.

The Openings = A sound foundation.
Many of the examples in this book are not current theory. But if you play through all the examples, or only a few of them, the Author will continually reinforce what is important. Lesen Sie weiter...

This is ALL you will need to know about the opening until U reach a rating of about 1800 or so. This book is great because it offers UNDERSTANDING rather than MEMORIZATION. Lesen Sie weiter...

I really like this book. For me, finding some basic principles that I can apply to any opening or position is more important than memorizing pages of opening theory. Lesen Sie weiter...
