Is this book good?

"... . British publishers have led the way in the re-release of these books, oftentimes employing the talent of GM John Nunn to update material, convert notation and generally make other additions that he deems appropriate.

This particular version appeared at the end of 1998 and is the twelfth (!) edition of Vukovic's masterpiece. Nunn has done a reasonably good job of preparing the material for today's chess player. ...

> Is the art ofattack good for openings and traps

It’s not a book about openings and traps. It’s a much better book than that. It’s a book about how to attack the king. The uncastled king. The castled king. The classic bishop sac, when it works and when it doesn’t. Etc. I’m sure there are YouTube videos on it out there.
