So then you condemn a whole book because of one paragraph! And you
condemn it because that one paragraph does not discuss the King's
Gambit, or hypermodern openings. Yet Ideas Behind the Chess Openings
*_does_* discuss those very things, at considerable length.

We are often advised not to judge a book by its cover, but our Greg
has a new method: if the first paragraph does not discuss the whole of
chess theory, the book is no good.
