    Автор – мастер спорта СССР, тренер ФИДЕ. Среди его учени- ков чемпион мира среди школьников до 7 лет Дерек Лим, чемпион мира до 18 лет Самвел Тер-Саакян и др. В книге раскрывается малоисследованная, но важная, яркая и очень увлекательная тема – игра королем в дебюте и миттельшпи- ле. Король может не только прятаться в убежище, но и принимать активное участие в обороне и даже совершать марш-бросок через всю доску, чтобы помочь поставить мат неприятельскому монарху! «Чувством короля» обладали все чемпионы мира. Автор особенно выделяет в их ряду В. Стейница, Т. Петросяна и А. Карпова. Совре- менные гроссмейстеры также хорошо владеют игрой королем, в чем читатель убедится, разбирая приведенные в книге партии Н. Шор- та, И. Чепаринова, Ван Хао, Я. Непомнящего и др. Включив умение играть королем в арсенал стратегических приемов, вы повысите свое мастерство и станете лучше понимать шахматы в целом. "С Тиграном Гезаляном я знаком практически с той поры, как я начал играть в шахматы. Учитывая то, что он человек очень начитанный и чуткий , для моих родителей был всегда желанным собеседником, и порой помогал советами в пору моего становления. Большинство учеников Тиграна имеют очень важные особенности - они хорошо эрудированны и бесстрашны. Один из моих секундантов и друзей гроссмейстер Самвел Тер-Саакян имеет все эти положительные качества как игрок и человек , так как является учеником Гезаляна. Тема которую поднимает автор, впервые была введена в практику первым чемпионом мира по шахматам Вильгельмом Стейницем. Абсолютно новаторская идея, особенно в век, когда игроки жертвовали комплекты фигур ради того, чтобы вытащить короля на прогулку, была принята с прохладцей. Как это так - король может сам себя защитить?! Потребовалось много времени, чтоб игроки начали использовать короля без опаски, но и до сих пор порой можно увидеть гроссмейстеров которые боятся оставлять короля в центре. Данная книга в деталях освещает эту редкую тему, и надеюсь, что любой читатель найдет в ней для себя много нового о нашей любимой игре." Левон АРОНЯН, гроссмейстер.

But after all, the defeats of the greats are no less instructive and spectacular, for the champion can be defeated only by applying super-efforts and showing all his creative abilities. The book contains more than 200 exciting fights, which not only makes it an excellent textbook on strategy and tactics, but also fills in some degree the lack of historical information about its heroes.
