    The authors continue to study typical opening and middlegame positions. Royal Fortress No. 2 has pawns on squares f7, g6, h7 (or f2, g3, h2), and they are usually joined by another defender – bishop on g7 (g2). This formation is called fianchetto, it is found in many popular openings, such as the Catalan Opening, King's Indian Defense, Grunfeld Defense and a number of others.  The authors analyze in detail the techniques of attack, defense and counterattack. Most examples – from the creativity of modern chess players (for example, a separate chapter is dedicated to the strongest Russian grandmaster Ian Nepomniachtchi); they are complemented by parts that have become a classical heritage. The book contains about 300 positions for independent solution, so it is not only a textbook, but also a solid problem book. Grandmaster Konstantin Chernyshov, head of the Interregional Grandmaster School in Kostroma, and his daughter International Master Natalya Kareva – experienced coaches, whose students include grandmasters and masters, champions of Russia and Europe among juniors.  The book is addressed to young chess players and their mentors.

    1) Капабланка в России - И. Линдер, В. Линдер Авторы настоящей книги рассказали о жизни и деятельности гениального шахматиста, с соответствующим акцентом на его связи с советской шахматной культурой, постарались показать несостоятельность некоторых получивших хождение еще при жизни великого шахматиста и затем укоренившихся в литературе стереотипов, которые мешают увидеть его истинный вклад в сокровищницу шахматного искусства, в развитие мировой шахматной культуры (в их числе утверждения о его пренебрежении к дебютной теории, о том, что он являл собой «человека-машину» в шахматах, что он был глашатаем их близкой «ничейной смерти», наконец, что шахматы в его жизни были лишь хобби). При работе над книгой были использованы самые различные источники, как советские, так и зарубежные. Кроме сборников партий и общих трудов о жизни и творчестве Капабланки, внимание авторов привлекли оригинальные публикации кубинского шахматиста в советской литературе, отдельные малоизвестные, но важные его статьи в испаноязычной прессе, а также имевшиеся в распоряжении авторов неопубликованные письма Капабланки, воспоминания о нем современников. Наконец, многочисленные публикации советских авторов по теоретическим или общим проблемам шахматного искусства, в которых рассматриваются творческие идеи Капабланки. Представление об этих работах дает приводимая в книге библиография использованной литературы. Подробно о московских турнирах 1925, 1935, 1936 гг. Рассчитана на широкий круг любителей шахмат. 2) В далеком Багио - Карпов А. О матче на первенство мира Карпов-Корчной 1978 г. глазами победителя. 3) На шахматном Олимпе - Батуринский В., Карпов А. История борьбы за первенство мира и лучшие партии А.Карпова; много партий и фото. 4) Сквозь призму полувека - Флор С. В книге выдающегося гроссмейстера и журналиста собраны его лучшие работы, а также воспоминания. 5) Они играли в шахматы - Антонов Г.В., Гродзенский С.Я., Линдер И.М., Романов Очерки о выдающихся русских и советских писателях, ученых и музыкантах, в жизни которых значительное место занимали шахматы: Чернышевский, Менделеев, Пушкин. Толстой, Тургенев, Горький, Маяковский, Скрябин, Прокофьев и мн.др. Они высоко ценили эту игру, посвящали ей часы досуга, а порой шахматы служили для них источником вдохновения, помогая ярче проявить свой гений в науке, литературе, искусстве. Эта сторона жизни выдающихся людей интересна не только тем, что позволяет полнее представить их жизнь, мир занятий и увлечений. Она раскрывает шире, глубже влияние игры на человека, место ее в обществе, нравственно-воспитательное предназначение, удивительную многоплановость, вызванную триединой формулой шахмат — искусство, наука, спорт. В столь широком аспекте книга на эту тему публикуется впервые. Книга рассчитана на широкий круг любителей шахмат. 6) Эпизоды шахматных баталий - Ботвинник М. В книге представлены 40 эпизодов из партий первого советского чемпиона мира. Они отобраны автором либо из-за исключительности шахматного содержания, либо из-за их особого места в спортивной биографии. Удивительная глубина мысли Патриарха советских шахмат! В мягкой обложке.
