    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.

    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.
