    The 2012 World Vice-Champion continues his story, begun in the best-selling books Positional Decision Making in Chess. ("Book of the Year" according to the English Chess Federation), "Dynamic Decision Making in Chess" and "Technical Decision Making in Chess." The new book discusses ways to make decisions in positions without minor pieces. The reader will get acquainted with rook and queen endings, as well as with what Romanovsky called the "fourth stage", that is, the late middlegame / early endgame, where only heavy pieces remain on the board. «Gelfand is very good– and very honest – explains what decisions he was able to calculate and what he had to make on the basis of general reasoning, and how he did it. This resulted in a book of the type that I love. A chess player of any strength can find a lot of useful things here. (Grandmaster Matthew Sadler, reviewer of novelties in chess literature in the magazine "New in Chess"). For a wide range of chess lovers.

    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?
