    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.

      Amerigo Vespucci is the same person who gave his name to America in 1507. Whether he deserved to have an entire continent named after him, or not, the debate continues to this day. In this first critical biography of Vespucci, we follow him from Lorenzo de' Medici's Florence to Ferdinand and Isabella's Seville, across Columbus' Atlantic to our hero's meeting with the New World on the other side of the ocean. The image of Vespucci is unsteady - it remains as elusive as in the Florentine half-light of his youth - but we get to know him so close for the first time. No matter how little we know about what happened to Vespucci and about his own actions, after reading this book the reader will better understand both the famous Florentine and the era of great geographical discoveries.

    Foreword by Academician of the Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR and USSR Academy of Sciences V.N. Chernigovsky. A. S. Zalmanov & mdash; outstanding scientist, three times doctor of medicine (Russia, Germany, Italy), general of the medical service. His book & mdash; it is a lively, imaginative and emotional conversation with the reader about the body's natural defenses and how to stimulate them, a passionate speech against the widespread and often unjustified use of antibiotics and chemotherapeutic drugs, which often have a detrimental effect on the body. The core idea of the book is & mdash; & laquo; the wisdom of the body & raquo ;, its ability to self-regulate as self-healing in various & laquo; breakdowns & raquo ;. Under the influence of the works of A. Krog, who received the Nobel Prize in medicine precisely for his work on the study of the physiology of capillaries, Zalmanov created his concept based on his vast experience in healing numerous patients with chronic diseases. Treatment according to Zalmanov primarily consists in the revival of capillaries to life. He proved that using capillary therapy is possible not only treatment, but also the prevention of aging. His ideas about the dominant role of capillaries in the body, about the need to restore impaired capillary blood flow are more relevant than ever. He developed a method of capillary therapy and the formulation of white, yellow and mixed & laquo; turpentine baths & raquo; helped many, many thousands of patients.
