    The authors continue to study typical opening and middlegame positions. Royal Fortress No. 2 has pawns on squares f7, g6, h7 (or f2, g3, h2), and they are usually joined by another defender – bishop on g7 (g2). This formation is called fianchetto, it is found in many popular openings, such as the Catalan Opening, King's Indian Defense, Grunfeld Defense and a number of others.  The authors analyze in detail the techniques of attack, defense and counterattack. Most examples – from the creativity of modern chess players (for example, a separate chapter is dedicated to the strongest Russian grandmaster Ian Nepomniachtchi); they are complemented by parts that have become a classical heritage. The book contains about 300 positions for independent solution, so it is not only a textbook, but also a solid problem book. Grandmaster Konstantin Chernyshov, head of the Interregional Grandmaster School in Kostroma, and his daughter International Master Natalya Kareva – experienced coaches, whose students include grandmasters and masters, champions of Russia and Europe among juniors.  The book is addressed to young chess players and their mentors.

    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.

    Bauernschwächen entscheiden in unzähligen Schachpartien über Sieg und Niederlage. Jeder Spieler muß sich im praktischen Kampf wieder und immer wieder mit Bauernschwächen im eigenen und gegnerischen Lager auseinandersetzen. Deshalb kommt der vorliegenden fundamentalen Untersuchung von Bauernschwächen und allen damit zusammenhängenden Problemen höchste Bedeutung zu. Wolfgang Uhlmann, der bekannte Internationale Großmeister, hat seine in langjähriger Spielpraxis gewonnenen Erfahrungen in dieses Buch eingebracht, um für den Leser die Beschäftigung mit der Theorie so gewinnbringend und leicht wie nur irgend möglich zu machen. Anhand von 139 Partien aus der älteren und modernen Meisterpraxis wird das Thema Bauernschwächen erschöpfend abgehandelt. Die Autoren erörtern eingehend die drei Grundformen der Bauernschwächen: den isolierten Bauern, den rückständigen Bauern und den Doppelbauern. Die verschiedenen strategischen Zusammenhänge werden leichtverständlich herausgearbeitet und die davon für beide Spieler stellungsgerechten Pläne abgeleitet. Ausführlich dargelegt sind die engen Beziehungen zwischen Eröffnungssystemen und den Formen von Bauernschwächen. Auf diese Weise erfährt der Schachfreund alles, was er wissen muß, um feindliche Bauernschwächen optimal auszunutzen bzw. eigene Bauernschwächen bestmöglich zu verteidigen. Der Band ist übersichtlich und anschaulich angelegt, daß ihn Schachspieler jeglicher Spielstärke mit Gewinn nutzen können. Jedes Kapitel wird mit allgemeinen Gesichtspunkten zur Bewertung eingeleitet und ist nach sachlichen Gesichtspunkten sehr übersichtlich gegliedert. Über 230 Diagramme erhöhen die Anschaulichkeit. Den Abschluß bilden Partien mit Punktbewertung, so daß die Leser ihren Kenntnisstand und Wissenszuwachs selbst kontrollieren können.
