Grandmaster Alexander Raetsky and international master Maxim Chetverik are well known for their work, mainly on the theory of debuts. Their books were published in Russia, England, Germany. This book is devoted to the adopted queen gambit, which the authors consider the most principled response to 1.d4. Knowledge of the standard positions of the debut will help to expand the general outlook of the chess player, since the gambit is related to many other beginnings. The book is distinguished by a non-standard presentation of material on the basis of interesting parts of many strong grandmasters played, mainly, in the last 10-15 years. Authors use their rich personal experience.

The Panov Botvinnik attack has a uniquely important place in chess lore. After Capablanca adopted the Caro Kann, it assumed a status as the solid way for Black to escape attacking efforts of e4 players. No more gambits or attacks, just simple solid play in the center. This was the last nail in the coffin of the "Romantic" age of chess.

The modern protection of Philidor is a very strong, strategically rich debut with a wide variety of pawn structures, which can become your primary weapon in response to 1.e4. As a rule, White studies this protection in the last place, because they have enough urgent problems in other open and half-open principles, and meanwhile, the game of "general considerations" is contraindicated here. How many times has it been that the whites, lulled by the "timid" appearance of the rival, unwittingly relaxed, began to act superficially and reminisced only when their party was already inevitably rolling under the slope! It is no accident that the protection of Filidor included in its repertoire dozens of leading contemporary grandmasters, including representatives of the elite. The new work of the well-known journalist, international master Vladimir Barsky is both a textbook and a reference: to quickly include the new scheme in the repertoire, it is enough to study the Brief Overview and sample games, and the section "Step by Step" will help to penetrate deeper into the secrets of the debut.
