    The sixth, final book dedicated to the work of Mikhail Tal. It covers the last period of his performances in tournaments, ending on July 28, 1992, when the exhausted organism could no longer serve the indomitable spirit. It became more and more difficult to play, more and more difficult, but the bright bursts of Talev's genius continued to often delight his fans. Tal's performances at the World Cup in Reykjavik (1988), tournaments in Tel Aviv (1990) and Buenos Aires (1991) deserve to be noted in both the results and the game, but his victory at the first world blitz championship in 1988. Tal carried his love for the lightning-fast game through his whole life, and it was no coincidence that his last tournament was a blitz in Moscow (two weeks before his death), in which he took third place, winning in a personal duel with world champion Garry Kasparov. The last serious tournament game of Mikhail Tal specifically for our publication was commented on by grandmaster Alexei Shirov, a brilliant chess artist who preserves and enhances the creative traditions of his great countryman, carefully and at the same time & mdash; fearlessly supporting and fanning the Talev fire on a chessboard.

    Party, biography, photos, statistics. Mikhail Botvinnik (1911 - 1995) - man-era! He was born under the last Russian emperor Nicholas II, and died under the first president of Russia, Boris Yeltsin. He received instructions from the second world champion Emanuel Lasker and gave lessons to the fourteenth champion Vladimir Kramnik himself. While studying at school, he did not know the slide rule, and at a respectable age he played chess with a computer. Botvinnik was not yet 25 years old when he became one of the living symbols of a great power and remained it for the next 60 years. His remarkably solid nature was mixed up with a mixture of communist education, the Spartan regime and an innate sense of intelligence. He was one in two persons - the Champion and the Scientist. Doctor of chess and grandmaster of electrical engineering. The main advantages of Botvinnik - iron will, a scientific approach, a clear vision of the goal. Botvinnik accumulated the best features of the Soviet chess school. And at the same time, this school embodied many of the priorities it proclaimed. Botvinnik devoted thirty years of his life to the creation of an “artificial intelligence” - a chess program, not only a “master playing by virtue”, but also “thinking like him.” "Pioneer" was his pride, and his pain, and his "blue bird". Botvinnik's multivolume legacy is a classic of world chess, his life is an example of disinterested service to chess art.
