Grandmaster Repertoire 5: The English Opening: Volume 3: 05

A very analytical and free from computers analysis ( it does not mean that the authors have not taken help from computers) as many lines are different from Computer suggestions.

Clearly written but deep. The writers have put a lot of work into the book. Bold lines to play. I must confess that on some of the lines I will have to run it through the computer; to check that I can get back the material on lines that initially gambit a pawn.

The canonical reference on the symmetrical english.
