Summary: A book for someone who knows how to play, but not well
Comment: This book helped me when I was learning. This book gives 3 basic openings and encourages the user to focus on just these. This is good advise for someone who knows how to play, but not well. These openings will get you into a sound middle game, and if your opponent is not careful they will make a mistake you'll be ready to capitalize on. I now follow a similar line of reasoning but I now use a differnt opening, the King's Indian...partly because it can be used for white or black, and it is more difficult to disrrupt. My favorite book for that is "The Ultimate King's Indian Attack" by Angus Dunnington.

Summary: It's OK
Comment: The author(s) specifically comments (favorably) about three openings used in chess: The Stonewall, The Sicilian Dragon, & The Lasker Defense and the prospect of those openings evolves into a strong middle and ultimately a won game. A good book, but somewhat dull. I would hardly consider it to be a necessity in one's chess library.

Summary: Don't waste your money
Comment: This is just another useless book of chess notation. At the time of this review the book is out of print and it should stay that way. Reinfeld and Horowitz are awesome players but.....Reinfeld has a talent for filling pages with useless annotation and diagrams and Horowitz is a master at coming up with eye catching titles that don't reflect what is inside the book. Together they have managed to publish yet another second rate chess book. These two prove that chess talent does not make you a good author. Both of these players have written tons of books and they are not getting any better at it. Anyone who has seen this book knows it doesn't even earn one star.
