Indeed, Kasparov used it as his staple defense in the most recent World Championship against Karpov, once again demonstrating its viability at the highest level. Wining with the King's Indian is a unique insight into this dynamic opening by one of its leading exponents over the last thirty years, Eduard Gufeld considers each of White's major responses, demonstrating the many counter-attacking resources of Black's disposal through a series of instructive and entertaining games.
