    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.

    Современные секреты подготовки гроссмейстеров. Предисловие Г.Каспарова. В книге заслуженного тренера РСФСР и Грузинской ССР, международного мастера М.И. Дворецкого, воспитавшего целую плеяду мастеров высокого класса, обобщен опыт его тренерской работы. В своих анализах Дворецкий стремится не только выявить секреты конкретных позиций, но и вскрыть суть более общих, малоизученных пока явлений в шахматах: будь то, например, проблема подготовки к соревнованиям или даже принципы самого анализа. В главах об анализе отложенных позиций впервые, наверное, делается попытка проникнуть в самую суть такого анализа. Тема второй части книги - эндшпиль. В последнем разделе книги особенно интересны главы о разыгрывании позиций. Неординарное отношение ко многим вопросам современной теории и практики, попытка проникнуть в самую суть анализа, а также психологию творческого процесса делают данную работу весьма актуальной и полезной для шахматистов любой квалификации.
