    To participate in the match-tournament in 1941, the winners of the XII USSR Championship were invited: I. Bondarevsky, A. Lilienthal, V. Smyslov, P. Keres, I. Boleslavsky and M. Botvinnik. After the participants of the match-tournament became known, the tournament program was determined. Each had to play four games with each one & mdash; actually a small match. Thus, the match tournament consisted of four laps. Mikhail Moiseevich said that this book & mdash; the best that he did in the field of chess analysis. Meanwhile, it was created in the most difficult conditions: during the war, in evacuation. The family of a chess player of 6 people lived in the room, and every day, coming from work, he worked on a table made of suitcases, believing that in this way he retains his analytical power for future accomplishments. M.M. often said that the real science according to & laquo; Parkinson's Law & raquo; done in the barn, but as soon as the doorman appears in the livery at the main entrance, science ends. Apparently, this also applies to literary and chess work.

    Для участия в матч-турнире 1941 г. были приглашены призеры XII чемпионата СССР: И. Бондаревский, А. Лилиенталь, В. Смыслов, П. Керес, И. Болеславский и М. Ботвинник. После того, как участники матч-турнира стали известны, была определена и турнирная программа. Каждый с каждым должен был сыграть четыре партии — фактически по небольшому матчу. Таким образом, матч-турнир состоял из четырех кругов. Михаил Моисеевич говорил, что эта книга — лучшее, что сделано им в области шахматного анализа. Между тем, она создавалась в труднейших условиях: во время войны, в эвакуации. В комнате жила семья шахматиста из 6 человек, и ежедневно, приходя с работы, на столе, составленном из чемоданов, он трудился, полагая, что таким образом сохраняет свою аналитическую силу для грядущих свершений. М.М. часто говорил, что настоящая наука согласно «Закону Паркинсона» делается в сарае, а как только появляется швейцар в ливрее у парадного входа, наука заканчивается. Видимо, это касается и литературно-шахматного труда. Другой эпизод, связанный с книгой, относится к 1970 году. А.А.Быховский (в то время старший тренер молодежной сборной СССР) привел к Ботвиннику Александра Белявского. Потом М. М. говорил, что Белявского ему показали слишком поздно. Что значит поздно, переспросили его? «17 лет — поздно, шахматист уже сформирован», — ответил Михаил Моисеевич. Юноша понравился, и Ботвинник дал ему эту книгу для тщательного изучения. Через несколько месяцев она была возвращена со словами: «Хотел найти хотя бы одну ошибку в анализе, но не нашел!» Первому изданию уже 60 лет. Второе выходило в 1951 году! Тираж нового небольшой — 1700 экз. Кроме того, 200 экз. выпущены в эксклюзивном виде: с золотым обрезом и именными, выполненными шелкографией.

    The book details all 43 games played by A. Karpov in three matches of the candidates (with Polugaevsky, Spassky and Korchnoi), which led him to the title of world champion in 1975. April 24, 1975 Anatoly Karpov was awarded a laurel wreath of the world champion in chess. The chess crown returned to the Soviet Union again. Of course, it is interesting for Soviet chess players to become more familiar with the work of the young grandmaster. In the new book of the first Soviet world chess champion M. Botvinnik, all 43 games played by Anatoly Karpov in the three matches of the contenders are commented on, which led the young chess grandmaster to the chess Olympus.
