While Chess education should start from the study of endgames (how could you manage 32 pieces when you have doubts with three?) coming well out of the opening should give you an advantage.
Having problems in remembering anything after going through the monograph of your preferred opening?
You've been told that you should not learn an opening by heart? Masters do, able to play automatically ten to twenty moves.
Knowing three moves of the most popular openings and five of all the variants of your four preferred openings (two with White and two with Black) should give you a sufficient edge.
As usual I apologize for the grammatical errors you will encounter in this translation (the handbook was published in Italian two years ago with no negative review, meaning the moves and diagrams should be correct).
Click to look inside to see if YOU will understand, and if the content is original and possibly helpful to you.
To help notation is algebraic with figurines.
Links are also provided to follow through the games and download the pgn (an internet connection is needed)

What this book is not:
* A collection of commented games proposed as a repertoire, like books with a similar title do
What this book is about:
* A method to build a repertoire
* A basic method for novice players (it stays on a single page)
The idea comes from a book in French by Partos, long time out of print
* A more advanced method for intermediate players, with 5 moves of the main variants.
The idea comes from what a Russian instructor told Giddings
* The application of the method to four preferred openings
* Links to help see the moves
What you need to know:
* Algebraic notation
* A visualization of at least 6 plies (10 would avoid the use of a board)
What's new in edition 2a: added theory tables. Neat on KF and traditional eink displays, not well aligned on Voyage.
