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).

    Autobiographical novelAuthor: Alexander KuprinTitle: Junkera (Junkers).Publisher: Editions et librairie «La Renaissance» (Vozrojdenie), Paris, 1933First russian edition328 pagesLanguage: Russian In May 1916 in the newspaper "Evening News" was placed Kuprina interview, talked about his future plans: "... I began to hunt for the end of" junkers ", - informed the writer - this novel is a kind of continuation of my own story" At the turn (Cadets). " Here I am all in the power of images and memories cadet life with her front and inner life, with quiet joy of first love and meetings at dance parties with their "likes." Remember cadet years tradition of our military schools, types of caregivers and teachers. And I remember a lot of good ... I hope that this fall will release this story to light. " (M. Petrov, Y AIKuprin, "Evening News", 1916, May 3, № 973). The revolutionary events in Russia and the subsequent emigration stopped work on a novel writer. Only in 1928, five years before the publication of the novel as a book, in the newspaper "Renaissance" appear some of its chapters. Two years later, in "Renaissance" were printed a few more chapters. Separate edition of the novel was published only in 1933. В мае 1916 года в газете «Вечерние известия» было помещено интервью Куприна, рассказавшего о своих творческих планах: «... с охотой я принялся за окончание «Юнкеров», — сообщал писатель, — повесть эта представляет собой отчасти продолжение моей же повести «На переломе (Кадеты)». Здесь я весь во власти образов и воспоминаний юнкерской жизни с ее парадною и внутреннюю жизнью, с тихой радостью первой любви и встреч на танцевальных вечерах со своими «симпатиями». Вспоминаю юнкерские годы, традиции нашей военной школы, типы воспитателей и учителей. И помнится много хорошего ... Надеюсь, что осенью текущего года выпущу эту повесть в свет». (Петров М., У А.И. Куприна, «Вечерние известия», 1916, 3 мая, №973). Революционные события в России и последовавшая затем эмиграция прервали работу писателя над романом. Только в 1928 году, за пять лет до издания романа отдельной книгой, в газете «Возрождения» появляются отдельные его главы. Двумя годами позже  в «Возрождении» были напечатаны еще несколько глав. Отдельным изданием роман вышел только в 1933 году.
