Publisher's Synopsis

Over his five matches for the World Championship against Gary Kasparov, the closed Spanish was Karpov's most common defence to the king's pawn. The Zaitsev system, devised by Karpov's long-time second and chief analyst, Igor Zaitsev, has been the main scene of these contests and has been the battleground for a remarkable series of chess masterpieces.;This book also covers a second system, which Karpov developed himself for the most recent match.
