    The book brought to your attention contains: 50 tests, 12 positions each, the time allotted for the test is 1 hour. The subject of examples is extensive (35 types in total), their order is random, so it is difficult to deduce any patterns, there is only one way left: to study the position, analyze what you see, highlight the main thing and draw conclusions with the help of reasoning, i.e. offer a solution. If the solution is correct, then you get a certain number of points for it (from one to four). The sum of points scored in solving the positions of one test will allow you to judge the level of your preparation. Before proceeding to solve this or that example, you should first carefully study the position. The order in this case can be as follows: first of all, we are interested in the location of the kings, then the balance of power, then we look at which pieces and pawns (our own and others') are under attack, which ones are poorly protected, and, finally, we pay attention to confrontations, i.e. . bundles and "ambushes". How well you do this will determine the correct answer. We hope that the solution of these tests will be a good basis for your future victories.

    В своей новой книге известные гроссмейстеры, теоретики и тренеры предприняли попытку «объять необъятное»: выделить и раскрыть все наиболее важные вопросы стратегии шахмат, о которых должен иметь представление каждый грамотный шахматист. Тщательно отобранные и глубоко проанализированные партии и фрагменты представляют собой симбиоз классических, хорошо известных образцов и примеров из современной практики. Все приведенные партии и фрагменты разделены на три уровня сложности; каждую главу сопровождает список дополнительных материалов для самостоятельного изучения. Первый том состоит из двух частей: «Дебют» и «Миттельшпиль», во втором томе разбираются две другие темы: «Пешки – душа шахмат» и «Динамика». Книга адресована, в первую очередь, перворазрядникам и кандидатам в мастера, хотя и более опытные шахматисты наверняка найдут для себя немало полезных советов и рекомендаций. Эта работа может быть использована и как самоучитель, и как учебник для специализированных шахматных школ. Искусство оценивать одновременно значение различных позиционных, тактических и смешанных факторов приходит с опытом. Каким бы ни был ученик талантливым, только сыграв тысячи партий и проштудировав множество книг, он станет зрелым шахматистом. Таким игроком можно назвать лишь того, кто впитал в себя шахматную культуру и в состоянии не только нанести “шальной” удар, но и выдать цельную стратегическую партию. Глядя на практически любую позицию, опытный шахматист сразу выделяет важные нюансы – статические и динамические. Какие пешки и поля слабые, положение каких фигур необходимо улучшить, какие в позиции могут быть тактические мотивы и т.д. Надеемся, что наша работа поможет научиться оценивать позицию по множеству подобных признаков – для практических успехов это очень важно.
