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.

А ведь именно его точка зрения на ход борьбы вызывает наибольший интерес. «Супертурнир в Линаресе» — первая книга Иванчука и первая возможность для читателей познакомиться с ним как с комментатором. Впервые гроссмейстер комментирует чужие партии, впервые широко приводит варианты, найденные во время аналитической работы.

Для подробного анализа отбирались наиболее интересные в творческом плане и важные в спортивном отношении встречи, а так же поединки, представляющие интерес для теории дебютов. Начальной стадии партий уделено особое внимание, причем Иванчук крайне редко обращается к другим источникам, он предпочитает показать собственное видение дебютных схем, многие свои изыскания. Много интересного найдет читатель и в других этапах поединков: примеры расчета сложных комбинаций, поучительные окончания, образцы нестандартных решений и филигранной техники.
