    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.

The structure of the book is simple and attractive: openings are examined using examples from actual games, each of which is presented in the form of a lesson with its own name. Several such lessons form an opening theme, and the examination of each theme concludes with exercises. In each opening, attention is drawn to its characteristic tactical and strategic ideas of combinations for independent solution strictly corresponds to the opening theme. Written in clear and easy language, the book is furnished with a large number of diagrams. Colored explanatory arrows on the diagrams and the selection of individual pages with a colored background make the book easier to understand.

    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.

    Шахматная Школа История шахмат насчитывает более десяти веков. Эта древняя игра сочетает в себе элементы науки, искусства и спорта. Шахматы способствуют развитию фантазии и концентрации внимания, воспитанию характера и воли, приучают логически мыслить. Научиться играть в шахматы не поздно в любом возрасте. Программа "Шахматная школа" рассчитана на детей и взрослых, делающих первые шаги в шахматах. Программа прекрасно подходит как для индивидуального обучения, так и для работы в классах с большим количеством учеников. Обучающий материал подготовлен заслуженным тренером России гроссмейстером Юрием Разуваевым, который в 70-е годы был одним из тренеров Анатолия Карпова. В нее входят три больших самостоятельных курса, которые можно изучать как последовательно, так и выборочно. В курсе "Правила шахматной игры" собран обширный теоретический материал, подкрепленный практическими заданиями. Обучающемуся предлагается, во-первых, изучить правила и приемы игры. Курс "Развитие интеллектуальных способностей" развивает воображение, логическое мышление и концентрацию внимания. С курсом "Игра с программой" вы закрепите полученные навыки и отточите мастерство в сражениях с компьютером. В "Шахматную Школу" встроена игровая программа, предполагающая игру с любой позиции на различных уровнях. Играя с компьютером, как с оппонентом, вы окунетесь в атмосферу шахматной партии и почувствуете азарт настоящего игрока. Вашему вниманию будет предложено 700 учебных примеров для самопроверки. Программа задает сложность и число упражнений, указывает на ошибочные решения, дает подсказки, начисляет очки за решенные задания с учетом ошибок, автоматически «следит», чтобы пользователь делал ходы по правилам. При обучении автоматически фиксируются все успехи и промахи, допущенные учеником. После выполнения каждого задания на экран выводится подробная статистика, позволяющая судить о том, к какой теме следует вернуться еще раз и изучению какого материала необходимо уделить дополнительное время. Статистика преподносится в удобном графическом виде по каждому из учеников. В программе используется принцип интерактивности: ученик не является пассивным потребителем информации, от него требуется постоянное активное участие в процессе обучения. Он должен не только думать и запоминать, но и передвигать фигуры, вводить с клавиатуры запись ходов, выбирать из нескольких предложенных вариантов ответа на вопрос правильный и т. д. При решении задач можно получить подсказку или разыграть комбинацию (в этом случае шахматные фигуры как бы "оживают" и начинают сами двигаться по доске). Однако следует учесть, что программа зафиксирует получение помощи и снизит оценку за выполнение упражнения. Если вы все же ошиблись и дали неверный ответ, программа покажет правильное решение. Таким образом действует принцип положительных стимулов и внимание обучающегося не фиксируется на ошибке. Некоторые типы упражнений содержат анимацию, что наверняка придется по вкусу юным шахматистам. Например, если фигуре требуется занять определенную позицию за строго ограниченное количество ходов, то клетки, на которые нельзя становиться, обозначены мухоморами, а та клетка, которой нужно достичь, - клубничкой. Разные виды учебной работы и большое количество анимационных вставок позволяют лучше усвоить достаточно сложный и объемный материал. Программа содержит встроенную систему помощи и подробную документацию. Минимальные системные требования: Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME, Pentium-75 МГц, 20 Mb RAM, 4 Mb свободного места на жестком диске, 4-скоростное устройство для чтения компакт-дисков или DVD-дисков, разрешение экрана 640х480 с глубиной цвета 8 бит, мышь.
