    The youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins. The preface was written by the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik. For a wide range of chess fans.

    Славянская защита - самый популярный закрытый дебют наших дней, входящий в репертуар подавляющего большинства гроссмейстеров высокого класса. Шахматист-практик, играющий 1.d4, сталкивается с этим дебютом практически в каждом турнире, черными же применять его можно вообще чуть ли не в каждой второй партии. В течение многих лет я играл самые разные разветвления этого дебюта за оба цвета, анализировал его как самостоятельно, так и в содружестве со многими известными гроссмейстерами. Сейчас я решил дать возможность всем желающим заглянуть в гроссмейстерскую лабораторию и познакомиться с моим профессиональным отношением к тем или иным дебютным разветвлениям. Вторая часть работы включает в себя все системы, не вошедшие в первую. Это популярный вариант Алапина 3.Kf3 Kf6 4.Kc3 dxc4, а также системы, берущие начало после 4...e6. Не забыты такие возможности как 5.g3 и 5.Фb3, а после 5.e3 Kbd7 разбираются главным образом меранский (6.Сd3 dxc4 7.Сxc4 b5) и антимеранский (6.Фc2 Сd6) варианты. Еще одну солидную часть книги занимает продолжение 5.Bg5, делящееся в свою очередь на несколько крупных самостоятельных разделов. Это московский (5...h6 6.Сxf6) и антимосковский (5...h6 6.Сh4) варианты, а также система Ботвинника 5...dxc4. Возможность объединить такое количество систем в одной книге (ее можно было бы сделать пятитомником) появилась благодаря тому, что я старался дерево устаревших с моей точки зрения линий сократить до умеренного количества, оставляя лишь то, что действительно полезно знать. В дебютных книгах часто приводятся второсортные продолжения, после которых следует большое количество ссылок на сыгранные таким образом партии. В итоге книга раздувается, а суть оказывается размыта. Я в подобных случаях кратко отмечал, почему данная конкретная линия не заслуживает подробного рассмотрения. Такой подход позволил «объять необъятное» не только без потери качества, но наоборот — под рукой всегда именно то, что необходимо, а найти нужную рекомендацию гораздо проще. Текстовые пояснения к вариантам и ключевым позициям даны не везде, а лишь в тех случаях, где мне это показалось важным и где выводы не слишком очевидны. В остальном использовалась общепринятая символьная система оценок. Книга содержит очень большое количество новинок с прилагающимися анализами, проделанными не менее тщательно, чем в первой части.

    The book of the repeated champion of Belarus, the well-known theoretician, coach A. Kapengut - is a serious study of one of the most popular debuts, meeting the current tendencies of aggravation of the struggle at the beginning of the game. The construction of the Blacks, which has evolved from the system of Old Indian defense into an independent debut (known as modernism, Benoni), is brought to a double-edged position with a clearly defined tactical picture of the struggle for initiative. When building a book, preference is given to practical material. For convenience of exposition, sometimes the most popular continuation is taken as the basis, while the strongest can be taken in notes. The parties appearing in print up to 1981 inclusive, as well as the most important parties played in 1982 It is designed for highly skilled chess players.
