    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 youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins. The preface was written by the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik. For a wide range of chess fans.

    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? Kotov thoroughly answers these crucial questions, and at the end of the book gives general recommendations that are of particular value to young chess players. Using the advice of Kotov, more than one generation of chess lovers learned to discipline their thinking and better understand the game. Now it's your turn, dear reader!

    The book of Grandmaster Ruslan Shcherbakov is devoted to the voluminous and substantial branching of the Slavic defense & ndash; one of the most popular modern beginnings. The Slavic Triangle, so named for the opening position of black pawns, is characterized by the fact that Black does not want to passively sit out on the defensive, and from the first moves take risks and provoke White to take risks in order to seize the initiative. This is & ndash; debut for those who love a live double-edged game! Having rich experience in using the system and having excellent practical results, the author explains in detail strategic ideas and pays great attention to specific nuances.
