    «The idea of continuing the autobiographical book “Steps” has been in the air almost since the moment it was written. Despite the bullet point at the end of the book in the form of a victory over Magnus Carlsen, my chess career continued for another full 14 years, and the subsequent stormy socio-political career is only gaining momentum.” (V. Bologan).  The book contains 75 games commented in detail and a number of fragments. A frank story about the life and professional path, about cooperation with the leading grandmasters and coaches of the world (among them - A. Karpov, G. Kasparov, Yu. Polgar, Zhu Chen, R.

    Petrosyan. Year after year. Volume 2 (1963-1984)
    Author:
    Gezalyan

    International Master Tibor Karolyi and FIDE Master Tigran Gozalyan have prepared a major work (in two volumes) about the life and work of the 9th world chess champion Tigran Petrosyan (he held the title from 1963 to 1969).  Volume II (1963-1984) tells about Petrosyan's victory in the 1963 world title match over Mikhail Botvinnik, about the grandiose two-match confrontation with Boris Spassky in 1966 and 1969, about all his candidates' matches after losing the title – against Bobby Fischer, Viktor Korchnoi and other world-class opponents. All tournaments and matches of the second half of Petrosian's chess career are presented, up to his last performances in 1983. The authors subjected 175 complete games and fragments to an in-depth analysis (using modern computers). Not all of them have been deeply studied and commented on before, but even then the book provides a significantly improved analysis. Among Petrosyan’s opponents – world champions and contenders Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Spassky, Tal, Smyslov, Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Bronstein, as well as Timman, Larsen, Reshevsky, Belyavsky, Polugaevsky, Portisch, Romanishin and many others. Special attention is paid to his coaches – Alexey Suetin and Igor Zaitsev.

    RUB

    Супертурнир с участием Каспарова и Карпова глазами победителя. Примечательная особенность данного турнирного сборника, это тот крайне редкий случай, когда о турнире пишет сам победитель. А ведь именно его точка зрения на ход борьбы вызывает наибольший интерес. «Супертурнир в Линаресе» — первая книга Иванчука и первая возможность для читателей познакомиться с ним как с комментатором. Впервые гроссмейстер комментирует чужие партии, впервые широко приводит варианты, найденные во время аналитической работы. Прежде в комментариях для шахматной периодики он ограничивался теми продолжениями, которые видел за доской в ходе игры. В книге приведена 91 партия турнира. Для подробного анализа отбирались наиболее интересные в творческом плане и важные в спортивном отношении встречи, а так же поединки, представляющие интерес для теории дебютов. Начальной стадии партий уделено особое внимание, причем Иванчук крайне редко обращается к другим источникам, он предпочитает показать собственное видение дебютных схем, многие свои изыскания. Много интересного найдет читатель и в других этапах поединков: примеры расчета сложных комбинаций, поучительные окончания, образцы нестандартных решений и филигранной техники. Рассчитана на высококвалифицированных шахматистов.
