    «The idea of continuing the autobiographical book “Steps” has been in the air almost since the moment it was written. Despite the bullet point at the end of the book in the form of a victory over Magnus Carlsen, my chess career continued for another full 14 years, and the subsequent stormy socio-political career is only gaining momentum.” (V. Bologan).  The book contains 75 games commented in detail and a number of fragments. A frank story about the life and professional path, about cooperation with the leading grandmasters and coaches of the world (among them - A. Karpov, G. Kasparov, Yu. Polgar, Zhu Chen, R. Ponomarev, A. Shirov, A. Morozevich, A. Onischuk, A. Ryazantsev, E. Inarkiev, M. Al-Mudakhka, M. Dvoretsky, M. Podgaets, V. Chebanenko, Z. Lanka and others), about political activities in the Parliament of Moldova and about work in FIDE are complemented by numerous photographs.   For a wide range of chess lovers.

    International Master Tibor Karolyi and FIDE Master Tigran Gozalyan have prepared a major work (in two volumes) about the life and work of the 9th world chess champion Tigran Petrosyan (he held the title from 1963 to 1969).  Volume II (1963-1984) tells about Petrosyan's victory in the 1963 world title match over Mikhail Botvinnik, about the grandiose two-match confrontation with Boris Spassky in 1966 and 1969, about all his candidates' matches after losing the title – against Bobby Fischer, Viktor Korchnoi and other world-class opponents. All tournaments and matches of the second half of Petrosian's chess career are presented, up to his last performances in 1983. The authors subjected 175 complete games and fragments to an in-depth analysis (using modern computers). Not all of them have been deeply studied and commented on before, but even then the book provides a significantly improved analysis. Among Petrosyan’s opponents – world champions and contenders Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Spassky, Tal, Smyslov, Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Bronstein, as well as Timman, Larsen, Reshevsky, Belyavsky, Polugaevsky, Portisch, Romanishin and many others. Special attention is paid to his coaches – Alexey Suetin and Igor Zaitsev.

    Fine

    In the vast ocean of chess literature there are relatively few books about the endgame, and only a few of them can be considered true chess classics. And the most outstanding among the classics — Reuben Fine's book "Basic Chess Endings". Reuben Fine (1914−1993) was for a long time one of the best chess players in the world. As an author, Fine showed himself to be an excellent analyst who understood the full depth and peculiarities of the endgame. Having studied various types of standard positions, Fine established useful rules for practical play and proved himself to be an experienced teacher who, using skillfully chosen examples, was able to teach the reader all the necessary lessons and introduce him to the basic ideas of the endgame. Many generations of chess players in different countries of the world keep copies of “Basic Chess Endings”. For example, Mikhail Botvinnik considered Fine's work the most worthy of all that had ever been written on endgame theory.

    All serious analyzes of the Veresov system in the debut of the queen pawns refer to the “precomputer era”. It was widely used in the second half of the last century, but now games at the grandmaster level are very rare. And, as the authors write in conclusion, still little is known about this debut and there is still little that is clear about it.

    The defense of Alekhine, a brave debut that defies all classical rules of the game at the beginning of a chess game, has evolved over time into a flexible system that allows blacks to either agree to "extreme" options, or to move to three horizontal lines to free themselves at a convenient time. This debut is relatively rarely chosen by elite grandmasters, due to which he is far from being drawn to the bottom and quickly leads to live gaming positions. Choosing it, Black sets himself the task of winning, not only to fight for a draw. From playing, both white and black, Alyokhin's protection is demanded by specific knowledge, books devoted to this protection in Russian have not been published for almost 30 years. This edition, consisting of 16 parts and 87 chapters, examines, among others, the lines of protection, the practice of which is dated exclusively to the twenty-first century. Thanks to modern technology and in-depth analysis, estimates of many previously known variants have also been changed. The book is written in a living literary language and will be useful as chess players with a high Elo ratio, and for fans. Increased format (170x235 mm).

    This book is the most complete collection of Emanuel Lasker's chess works in the world today. In addition to the frequently published CHESS TEXTBOOK and the rarer but well-known work COMMON SENSE IN CHESS, it includes rudiments of chess knowledge and lessons for beginners - works that are completely inaccessible today. Lasker's influence on the chess world was enormous, his athletic superiority over his opponents was so incredible that his contemporaries could not find a reasonable explanation for it. Some attributed his success to luck, others even suspected hypnosis! Only today have many of the methods that Lasker used in his chess practice become clear, although he, as a true scientist, directly set out his views in printed works. Lasker's books are essential for anyone who wants to understand chess and achieve success in it. Special hard "puffy" binding.
