    The authors continue to study typical opening and middlegame positions. Royal Fortress No. 2 has pawns on squares f7, g6, h7 (or f2, g3, h2), and they are usually joined by another defender – bishop on g7 (g2). This formation is called fianchetto, it is found in many popular openings, such as the Catalan Opening, King's Indian Defense, Grunfeld Defense and a number of others.  The authors analyze in detail the techniques of attack, defense and counterattack. Most examples – from the creativity of modern chess players (for example, a separate chapter is dedicated to the strongest Russian grandmaster Ian Nepomniachtchi); they are complemented by parts that have become a classical heritage. The book contains about 300 positions for independent solution, so it is not only a textbook, but also a solid problem book. Grandmaster Konstantin Chernyshov, head of the Interregional Grandmaster School in Kostroma, and his daughter International Master Natalya Kareva – experienced coaches, whose students include grandmasters and masters, champions of Russia and Europe among juniors.  The book is addressed to young chess players and their mentors.

    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.

    Книга по стратегии и тактике шахмат при тесной связи всех трех стадий - дебюта, миттельшпиля и эндшпиля на основе 124 партий, из них 122 разыграны староиндийской защитой, распределенных по 8 темам - мобилизация сил, борьба за пространство, атака и защита короля, открытые линии, проходные пешки, пешечные слабости, разрушение пешечной цепи, хорошие и плохие фигуры. Внутри каждой главы каждая партия (или их группа) иллюстрирует определенную частную позиционную идею. Второй том "Шахматного учебника" дополняет и углубляет материал первой книги, впервые изданной в 1996 году, по стратегии и тактике шахмат в более тесной связи с начальной стадией партии, поскольку содержит свыше ста партий, разыгранных одним дебютом. Был выбран дебют, отличающийся многообразием стратегических и тактических идей, - староиндийская, который является для юных шахматистов прекрасной школой прежде всего сложного, насыщенного комбинационными возможностями миттельшпиля. Автор сделал упор не на заучивание вариантов, а на понимание позиционных идей дебюта и вытекающих из него миттельшпилей и эндшпилей. Автор считает, что книга будет полезна не только "староиндийцам" и тем, кто вступит в их ряды, но и юным шахматистам, применяющим другие дебюты, поскольку посвящена общим позиционным законам шахмат. Книга содержит 60 замечательных этюдов для самостоятельного решения. В основном, эти позиции соответствуют темам плохие и хорошие фигуры, координация сил, проходные пешки, но реально они охватывают значительно большее количество позиционных идей и представляют собой прекрасное собрание стратегических и тактических приемов. Книга предназначена для разрядников и всех любителей шахмат.

    The book of an outstanding grandmaster and brilliant chess popularizer Alexander Kotov has already gained religious status. Talking about the principles of positional and combination games and illustrating them with examples, the author does not limit himself to explaining why this or that move is good or bad. He also shows the very process of the birth of grandiose designs in the grandmaster’s head, and also directs a powerful research beam to the dark corners of the brain, from which sometimes foolish errors ruin these ideas. The tone of the book is also surprising - a confidential one, built on a frank presentation of not always smoothly combed thoughts. What helps a strong chess player to penetrate the depths of the position and make a correct game plan for many moves ahead? Due to what he manages to accurately and far count puzzling, branching options? What means does he use to avoid hasty rash decisions? Kotov thoroughly answers these crucial questions, and at the end of the book gives general recommendations that are of particular value to young chess players. Using the advice of Kotov, more than one generation of chess lovers learned to discipline their thinking and better understand the game. Now it's your turn, dear reader!
