Sep 25, 2022 at 19:59 comment added Anna Thank you for the book recommendations, I'll check them out!
Sep 25, 2022 at 15:12 comment added Inertial Ignorance @Anna In addition to cmgchess' suggestion, "The Queen's Gambit Declined: Move by Move" could be a good - this series tends to focus more on explanations of plans and such. If you're more advanced and care more about the theory itself, there's "Playing 1.d4 d5: A Classical Repertoire". These books are both from 2017, so while not cutting edge they aren't too old either.
Sep 25, 2022 at 7:35 comment added cmgchess Nils Grandelius has a chessable course called 'Magnus Queen's Gambit' , a modern way of playing QGD
Sep 25, 2022 at 0:11 comment added Anna Thank you, I don't usually play Queen's Gambit so I didn't know. I've just heard a lot of praise for this particular one. What "modern" book would you recommend for QGD as black?
Sep 24, 2022 at 18:34 comment added Brian Towers Any opening book that is more than 20 years old is really only of interest or use to chess historians. Theory moves at far too fast a pace for you to be able to rely on lines in books that old.
