    International Master Tibor Karolyi and FIDE Master Tigran Gozalyan have prepared a major work (in two volumes) about the life and work of the 9th world chess champion Tigran Petrosyan (he held the title from 1963 to 1969).  Volume II (1963-1984) tells about Petrosyan's victory in the 1963 world title match over Mikhail Botvinnik, about the grandiose two-match confrontation with Boris Spassky in 1966 and 1969, about all his candidates' matches after losing the title – against Bobby Fischer, Viktor Korchnoi and other world-class opponents. All tournaments and matches of the second half of Petrosian's chess career are presented, up to his last performances in 1983. The authors subjected 175 complete games and fragments to an in-depth analysis (using modern computers). Not all of them have been deeply studied and commented on before, but even then the book provides a significantly improved analysis. Among Petrosyan’s opponents – world champions and contenders Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Spassky, Tal, Smyslov, Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Bronstein, as well as Timman, Larsen, Reshevsky, Belyavsky, Polugaevsky, Portisch, Romanishin and many others.

    The “Dragon Option” in the Sicilian Defense is consistently included in the repertoire of active-style chess players. His one-and-a-half-century practice shows that adherents of the development of an elephant on g7 do not surrender their borders. There is a "Dragon" in the field of view of the modern elite - world champion Magnus Carlsen, Teimour Radjabov and others. “Dragon Option” is one of the most difficult debuts used in modern tournament practice. The author examines classical and other systems (a separate volume is devoted to the “Rauser attack” - the same author in 2014) that the world champions Em.Lasker, Alekhin, Botvinnik and others used or fought against. Without their knowledge, players using the “Dragon” would not have had complete information about this debut as a whole. Considered the main directions, including the development of the 21st century. The book is designed for chess players "club" level and above.

    The Sicilian Defense variant 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.Bc4 is named after the Russian master Sozin, who introduced him to the tournament practice in 1929. But the main contribution to the study of this option made the legendary Robert Fisher. He not only included it in his debut repertoire, but also made him the main weapon against the version of Najdorf 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 a6, most popular in the Sicilian defense. And so option 5 ... a6 6.Bc4 should rightfully bear the name of Fisher. This is the reason for the title of the book “Fisher vs. Najdorf”. Variant survived a real boom after a very serious run-in in the match for the title of world champion in 1993, Kasparov - Short, where Harry Kasparov himself had to come forward as an opponent of the ideas of Fisher. And only sports happiness helped the world champion save a number of difficult positions. After that, “Fisher's Option 6.Bc4” appeared in the repertoire of not only Kasparov, but Topalov, Ivanchuk and other famous chess players. The book is based on the parties of Fisher and Kasparov, which determine the development of the variant, and is supported by the theory presented in an accessible form.

    The book of the famous theorist and coach of grandmaster Alexei Bezgodov & laquo; Double Queen Gambit & raquo; & ndash; This is an attempt to provide a chess player of any level with a full debut repertoire in response to 1.d4. Black plays 1 ... d5 and on 2.c4 or 2.Cf3 answer 2 ... c5! It may seem that blacks are not sufficiently ready for an immediate skirmish in the center, however many outstanding grandmasters of the past and present (Em. Lasker, M. Euwe, P. Svidler ...) used this scheme very successfully. Even deep preparation of whites does not guarantee them a real advantage. Having done a serious analytical work, the author offers a number of conceptual innovations and expresses the hope that & laquo; Double Queen's Gambit & raquo; will turn your view on the modern theory of debuts!
