A CLASSIC IN WORLD CHESS LITERATURE
 My System is considered by many to be the most important book in chess literature. Written in 1925 and translated into English in 1929, it has accompanied generations of players around the world for almost a century. Its author, Aaron Nimzowitsch (Riga 1886-Copenhagen 1935), one of the best players of his time, is the founder of the Hypermodern School of Chess, which revolutionized the theoretical approach to the game and is the basis for the development of chess theory over the last 100 years. Many elite players, such as former World Champion Tigran Petrosian, have relied on the study of My System to develop their sporting careers. This edition from Editora Solis presents the games annotated in the pictorial algebraic system and includes the appendix Contribution to the History of the Chess Revolution, with an important article by Aaron Nimzowitsch published in 1913.
 "With his ability to imagine profound and original systems, Nimzowitsch was far ahead of his time and his contribution to positional game theory was enormous. The book My System is an invaluable handbook for many generations of players." - Garry Kasparov.
