    Fine

    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.

    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.

    There are different kinds of classics. There are museum classics, like those dead languages, which are still studied, but which no one any longer speaks.

    And there are living classics, which are constantly being renewed; these are ‘languages’ which every succeeding generation ‘speaks’ in its own way, enriching and passing them on to their descendants.

    Chess in general and opening theory in particular are no exceptions to the general rule.

    The first volume gives a detailed and high-quality analysis of the Veresov Opening, the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit, the Levitsky Variation and other set-ups.

    The second volume is devoted to the London Variation and openings named in honour of Zukertort, Torre, Colle and others.

    In general only one thing is demanded of the reader: a desire. A desire to avoid well-trodden opening set-ups, and a desire to try something new.

    Do away with routine play! If you have such a desire, this two-volume work will become an indispensable assistant in your aim for creative experiments.

    And for victory!

    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.

    The book of an outstanding grandmaster and brilliant chess popularizer Alexander Kotov has already gained religious status. Talking about the principles of positional and combination games and illustrating them with examples, the author does not limit himself to explaining why this or that move is good or bad. He also shows the very process of the birth of grandiose designs in the grandmaster’s head, and also directs a powerful research beam to the dark corners of the brain, from which sometimes foolish errors ruin these ideas. The tone of the book is also surprising - a confidential one, built on a frank presentation of not always smoothly combed thoughts. What helps a strong chess player to penetrate the depths of the position and make a correct game plan for many moves ahead? Due to what he manages to accurately and far count puzzling, branching options? What means does he use to avoid hasty rash decisions? Kotov thoroughly answers these crucial questions, and at the end of the book gives general recommendations that are of particular value to young chess players. Using the advice of Kotov, more than one generation of chess lovers learned to discipline their thinking and better understand the game. Now it's your turn, dear reader!
