Summary: You don't need to learn a lot of opening theroy
Comment: Before i read this book i was speeding 1 to 2 hours a day on an opening repertoire. This was bad because i have only played chess 1 1/2 years and need to hit the old tactics gym. Its hard to get time when you work. Seirawan's opening solution took that problem away from me. As soon as i used it on my computer i won 3 games i a row. There is no need to talk about the rest of the book which explains the other openings that you can learn. The other reviews are probley from mutch stronger players then myself so there. anyway, all his books are great

Summary: Great for Chessmaster players
Comment: I'm a chess enthusiast who mostly plays Chessmater 9000. According to the program, after 12 rated games, I'm somewhere around 1000, and that's only because one of the computer opponents, "Argyle", keeps beating my butt. Otherwise I think I'd be around 1200 becasue I have a fairly easy go with all the other opponents rated around the 1000 mark.
What I wanted from Sierawan's book was a good synopsis of modern King Pawn (e4) Defenses since that is what Chessmaster usually plays. I usually play white and I always open with e4. Why make it more complex than it has to be, eh? The real fun doesn't start until the middlegame, anyway, so let's just get there. The sooner the better.
Sierawan's book delivers just what the doctor ordered. There's a full chapter dedicated to modern King Pawn Defenses and their variations told in simple terms that you don't have to be a grandmaster to understand. So, if you're a Chessmaster player, I'd sugest you download the nifty Chesspad utility (http://www1.tip.nl/~t799997/chesspad.htm), and use it to study these openings. You'll be glad you did.
Chessmaster offers a fine reference to opennings itself in it's "library" feature, but I found Sierawan's book to be much more effective in giving me a grasp on what the openings are about.

Summary: A Beginner learning Chess
Comment: I have found that his method of teaching the opening to be the Best, it helps show his students why it takes time to understand what is happening early in the game. Seirawan has done a grandmaster's job with his Winning Chess Series of Books.
