    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.

    Das Kandidatenturnier zur Schach-WM von 1953 ist zweifellos als eine der Sternstunden in die Schachgeschichte eingegangen. 15 Großmeister der absoluten Spitzenklasse ermittelten seinerzeit in Zürich in einem wahrhaft gigantischen Wettkampf über 30 Runden den Herausforderer für die Schachkrone. Ein Glücksfall war, daß zu den Kandidaten dieses Schachmarathons auch der Autor dieses Buches gehörte. Dem exzellenten Analytiker David Bronstein, der damals den ehrenvollen zweiten Platz belegte, verdanken wir so ein einmaliges Turnierbuch. In einer Umfrage der populären Zeitschrift "The British Chess Magazine" nach dem besten Schachbuch, das je geschrieben wurde, kam der Titel des sowjetischen Großmeisters unter 101 Bewerbern auch Rang zwei. David Bronstein (Vizeweltmeister 1951) gibt in diesem Turnierbuch einen tiefen Einblick in die Denkweise der Supergroßmeister. Er ist tiefsinnig, unterhaltend und selbstkritisch. Das Buch hat eigentlich 5 Sterne verdient, doch hat der deutsche Herausgeber leider einige Kürzungen gegenüber der russischen Originalausgabe ("mezhdunarodnij turnir grossmeisterov") vorgenommen. Der komplette Text ist auch noch in der englischen Ausgabe ("The Chess Struggle in Practice") zu erhalten. Hingewiesen sei noch auf das Buch von Max Euwe (WM von 1935-37) zum gleichen Turnier "Schachelite im Kampf", erschienen als Reprint im Olms Verlag Zürich.
