    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.

    Dear reader! In your hands is a collection of the most expensive and memorable works of the author & ndash; both written long ago, and lying in the archive for several decades, and born in recent years. My attempts at writing in a variety of literary genres, including poetry, have always amazed and delighted dad & ndash; chess historian Isaac Linder. Strict adherent of chess `` classicism '' and historical realism boldly co-authored a freethinker and, as critics from his beloved 19th century would say, a scribbler. And I must say, 'docking' was successful. I began to write history stories, not without pleasure, and he began to indulge in elegant artistic digressions. For more than a quarter of a century we have perfectly understood and complemented each other & hellip; This book is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the passionate propagandist of chess culture, chess encyclopedist, writer and sage Isaac Maksovich Linder, she & ndash; gratitude and bow to his blessed memory. Among her heroes & ndash; people who, by the will of fate, have linked their lives with Chess.

    Сергей Всеволодович Белавенец – один из сильнейших советских мастеров предвоенных лет, неоднократный участник чемпионатов СССР, авторитетный теоретик и журналист. Это он придумал ставший знаменитым афоризм: «Шахматы – трагедия одного темпа». А сформулированный им принцип «Не спешить!» стал важным элементом грамотной игры в эндшпиле. Сергей Всеволодович остался в памяти шахматистов как человек на редкость приветливый, спокойный, умный, обладающий врожденным тактом и большой культурой. Он хотел написать популярный учебник для шахматистов-разрядников, тщательно отбирал для него материалы, однако работа осталась неоконченной: в 1942 году С.В. Белавенец погиб на фронте. Его дочь Людмила родилась за год до начала войны. Через всю жизнь она пронесла образ своего отца и во многом под его влиянием решила связать свою жизнь с шахматами. Она была чемпионкой Москвы и СССР, а наиболее крупных успехов добилась в игре по переписке: в 1990 году стала чемпионкой мира, в составе сборной СССР трижды побеждала на Олимпиадах. Людмила Сергеевна систематизировала и обработала учебные материалы, подготовленные отцом, а также отобрала для книги лучшие партии – его и свои. Все шахматные примеры прошли компьютерную проверку; авторы выражают признательность международному мастеру Максиму Ноткину за помощь в этой работе. Учебник Белавенца не утратил своей актуальности: качественных учебных пособий для любителей по-прежнему выходит удивительно мало. Людмила Сергеевна Белавенец – один из лучших детских тренеров в нашей стране. Прирожденный педагог, человек талантливый и мудрый, она продолжает воспитывать новые поколения юных шахматистов. Среди ее воспитанников немало чемпионов мира, России и Европы, мастеров и гроссмейстеров, шахматных профессионалов, тренеров и журналистов. Наверняка ее размышления о проблемах детских шахмат будут интересны юным талантам и их родителям, а также коллегам-тренерам. Для широкого круга любителей шахмат. 2 вкладки – ч/б 16 стр. и цветная 16 стр
