Colin Purdon has reviewed
The Exchange Sacrifice according to Tigran Petrosian
by Vassilios Kotronias
from Russell Enterprises
https://britishchessnews.com/2022/12/23 ... petrosian/
I had a glance at this title before passing it to Colin and felt it would prove to be really very good indeed.

Does the rear cover *really* consist of blurb about the Grunfeld Defence?

No, it does not and thanks for pointing that out. Corrected and all down to my incompetence as usual.

In another place VK wrote about this review:
Thanks for that. For me the greatest reward was that a leading GM from Brazil wrote to me on fb messenger this is one of the best chess books on middlegame he ever read.
VK is a thoroughly nice chap and an excellent writer.
