My System is at the top of a very short list of chess classics. Nimzowitschs ideas have had a profound influence on modern chess thinking. Most chess masters will at some point have studied Nimzowitschs work, and not to have read My System is by many regarded as a shocking gap in a chess players education.
The problem for an English-speaking audience has been that My System was written in German more than eighty years ago. The commonly-used contemporary translations have sounded dated for some time, and were always questionable: the translators frequently toned down many passages, fearing Nimzowitschs biting wit would be too controversial.
This edition uses a brand-new translation that recreates the authors original intentions. For the first time an English-speaking audience can appreciate the true nature of a famous chess book.
