    Две книги по цене одной: 1) Дебют ферзевых пешек (том 1). 2) Дебют ферзевых пешек (том 2). 1)В этой книге многое сделано впервые. Впервые (по крайней мере на русском языке) дан подробный и качественный анализ системы Вересова. Впервые карта мин и ловушек в "садово - парковом" гамбите Блэкмара-Димера предстанет перед читателем в полном формате, без купюр. Оригинальная идея Литвиненко также не осталась без вдумчивого и кропотливого анализа, выносимого на читательский суд. От читателя по большому счету требуется только одно: желание. Желание избежать заезженных вдоль и поперек схем ферзевого гамбита, желание попробовать что-то новенькое. Прочь, шаблонная игра! Если таковое желание есть - первый том монографии "Дебют ферзевых пешек" станет незаменимым помощником на пути к яркому творческому эксперименту. И победам! 2)Классика классике рознь. Есть классика музейная, наподобие тех мертвых языков, которые все еще изучают, но на которых уже никто не говорит. А есть классика живая, вечно обновляющаяся; есть "языки", на которых каждое следующее поколение "говорит" по-своему, обогащая и передавая своим потомкам. Шахматы в целом и теория дебютов в частности не являются исключением из общего правила. Дебютные системы, названные в честь Цукерторта, Торре, Колее, были актуальны сто лет назад - и не потеряли своей актуальности доныне. Сильнейшие гроссмейстеры нашего времени проверили их "лазерным лучом" мощных компьютерных программ. Ненужное отбросили, полезное закрепили, сделав пригодным для массового изучения и использования. Об этом - второй том монографии "Дебют ферзевых пешек". Дебюта, который не устареет никогда.
