    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.

    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.

    This is a gift edition. Coated paper. Metal corners. Author: Mark Taimanov Title: Remembering the Best Ones Published: Saint-Petersburg, 2010 Binding: Hardback Language: Russian Pages: 216   In a colorful and bright kaleidoscope of meetings, acquaintances, events can not be the classical unity of place and time. And significance. Something flashed, leaving a barely noticeable trace in memory, which turned out to be something important stuck out. Some travelers remained what is called `nodding`. Others have grown into long-term friendship. Of course, meetings with prominent political figures are of a special nature - they seem, perhaps, the most unusual, curious, sometimes very flattering, but mostly accidental. The art world is different. With colleagues contacts and deeper, and more lasting, but, too, usually episodic - life, tour scatter in time and space. But with colleagues across the chess weapons is often attributed to years, if not decades. Joint trips, long tournaments, training, where you live for a long time side by side and together `eat poods of salt`, determine a special degree of mutual awareness and spiritual openness. The character of the impressions sunk into memory is also incomparable - from watercolor sketches to monumental paintings. I hope the reader will not complain about the inevitable disproportion of narrative forms. The main criterion I considered the uniqueness and importance of my heroes, the brightness of their personalities.   Mark TaimanovArt MN
