1. d4 Nf6 {
Alexander Alexandrovich Kotov was a Soviet chess grandmaster and author. He was a Soviet champion, a two-time world title Candidate, and a prolific chess author. Kotov
served in high posts in the Soviet Chess Federation and most of his books were
written during the period of Cold War between the US and the USSR. Therefore,
his works tended to be rather critical of (and occasionally somewhat
dismissive toward) American players. Russian players, on the other hand, were
presented and described in a particularly favorable light.} 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 Bb4
