This book is a thorough rewrite of my 1980 book English I … P-QB4 in algebraic notation. I say "rewrite" rather than "revision" because so much of the material is new. Perhaps a third of the most significant I c4 c5 games have been played since 1980. In the meantime, the very character of the opening has changed. In 1980, I had the large problem of organizing material into coherent lines, finding names for variations, etc. Since so little had been written, almost any suggestion was an improvement, and many obvious moves had never been tried. Now the major systems are well defined and widely known, much as with I e4 or I d4 systems. Specialists have arisen in many key variations, and the abundance of new games has created a certain consensus of opinion about major lines.
