    С предисловием М.Ботвинника. По этому учебнику учились многие выдающиеся шахматисты. Книга содержит первоначальные сведения о шахматной игре, учение о дебютах. Особое место занимают главы, посвященные позиционной борьбе и проблемам шахматной эстетики. М. Ботвинник об учебнике Э. Ласкера: Учебник содержит начальные сведения о шахматной игре, некоторые примеры, которые должны дать читателю представление о тонкостях шахмат, и объемистые сведения по теории начал (с пояснительными партиями). Глава о комбинации включает множество примеров, относящихся ко всем стадиям шахматной партии. На мой взгляд, представление Ласкера о комбинации несколько старомодно, но коллекция примеров превосходна. В главе о позиционной игре производит сильное впечатление как исторический обзор, так и собрание примеров позиционной игры. Эта глава - украшение учебника. В наши дни шахматисты мало знают о прошлом шахмат, о том, как формировалось учение о позиции. Ласкер был живым свидетелем развития первого этапа шахматной теории (ведь он выиграл матч за шахматную корону у самого Стейница), и здесь сведения об этом периоде развития шахмат читатель получает из первоисточника. Глава об эстетике шахмат, сама по себе весьма интересная, вряд ли имеет самостоятельное значение. Ее содержание могло бы быть разделено между главой о комбинации и главой о позиционной игре. Заканчивается учебник примерными партиями. Отметим отсутствие специальной главы об эндшпиле. Сведения о нем рассеяны по книге. То, что книга написана великим шахматным бойцом и мыслителем делает ее изучение полезной для каждого, серьезно изучающего шахматы и интересующегося их прошлым.
