About the Author
Robert Ris (1988) is an International Master from Amsterdam. He has represented The Netherlands in various international youth events, but lately his playing activities are limited to league games. Nowadays he is full-time chess professional, focusing on teaching in primary schools, coaching talented youngsters and giving online lessons to students all around the world.

Reviews
In summary then, this book covers familiar ground, but it does so very impressively, with plenty of diagrams, lucid explanations and appropriate levels of analysis. In my opinion Ris' book becomes the leader of the pack in a relatively crowded field. I commend it unreservedly. Mark Taylor, Windsor, Berkshire, 1st February 2020, BRITISH CHESS NEWS.
