The Dutch magazine Schaaksite.nl has reviewed the new book by Neil McDonald. The full review ( in Dutch) can be viewed HERE.
A translation of the conclusion...
"The examples in the book reflect very well the practical decisions from our daily chess practice. McDonald explains in clear language the dynamic techniques and these are certainly based on 'human' solutions to the problems of defense. The author also does not fail to let his years of experience as a coach shine through between the lines. The interactive style ensures a smooth reading experience, where you sometimes feel like you are sitting at the table with McDonald... Thanks to that coaching wisdom, the psychological side of defending is also frequently discussed."
