    International Master Tibor Karolyi and FIDE Master Tigran Gozalyan have prepared a major work (in two volumes) about the life and work of the 9th world chess champion Tigran Petrosyan (he held the title from 1963 to 1969).  Volume II (1963-1984) tells about Petrosyan's victory in the 1963 world title match over Mikhail Botvinnik, about the grandiose two-match confrontation with Boris Spassky in 1966 and 1969, about all his candidates' matches after losing the title – against Bobby Fischer, Viktor Korchnoi and other world-class opponents. All tournaments and matches of the second half of Petrosian's chess career are presented, up to his last performances in 1983. The authors subjected 175 complete games and fragments to an in-depth analysis (using modern computers). Not all of them have been deeply studied and commented on before, but even then the book provides a significantly improved analysis. Among Petrosyan’s opponents – world champions and contenders Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Spassky, Tal, Smyslov, Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Bronstein, as well as Timman, Larsen, Reshevsky, Belyavsky, Polugaevsky, Portisch, Romanishin and many others.

    Before you is the “book of life” of an outstanding grandmaster, a participant in the tournament of applicants for the world championship, the champion of the USSR. Collected in the first part of the 64 party with detailed author comments have considerable educational value. Averbach is not only a well-known debut theorist, but also an acknowledged master of the game in technical positions and the world's best expert in the endgame: he is the author of the classic work “Chess Endings”, translated into many languages. The second part of the book consists of memories, unique in their own way. In Soviet times, only the initiates knew the background of many of the most important decisions in chess. Perhaps the most informed of them was Yuri Averbakh, who for more than three decades was a member of the elite of the Soviet and international chess federations. In addition, over the years, he helped Botvinnik, Smyslov, Petrosyan, and Tahl. Revelations of such a person are truly priceless!
