    Alexander Panchenko himself says the following about this book: "The middlegame is the most difficult part of the game, so it is naturally impossible to understand it within the limits of one book. I decided to limit myself to 10 lectures. The topics discussed will help readers to better understand the problems of the middle game. Listening to the comments (mainly from coaches working with children) about my first book "Theory and Practice of Chess Endings", the author after each lecture now offers not only positions for solving (competitions), but also positions for playing. This will help to better assimilate the material."
