Description
A compact, complete repertoire for Black based on 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Nf6 (the Modern Scandinavian Defence) featuring solid, lesser-known lines like 3.d4 Nxd5 4.c4 Nf6, 3.Bb5+ Nbd7, and 3.c4 c6 rather than over-optimistic gambits. The short analysis is sufficient to get you safely out of the opening with good-enough positions so that you can "just play chess".

Description
Stefan Kisielewski (1911-1991) the dissident Polish writer and composer in his own words - but translated so that English readers can discover for themselves Kisiel's insightful, witty and provocative opinions on Debussy, jazz, Moniuszko, 'musical Marxism' and much else including his own music of course.
