Книга экс-чемпиона мира по шахматам - книга воспоминаний. Острые не только шахматные, но и житейские ситуации, столкновения характеров, портреты великих шахматистов написаны Карповым поистине с мастерством писателя. Мы приводим здесь маленький отрывок о Корчном: «Корчной всегда ненавидел своих соперников по матчам, а если проигрывал им - оставался врагом на всю жизнь; с Каспаровым же, несмотря на сокрушительное поражение, он остался в прекрасных отношениях. И если вспомнить, что в его практике уже был прецедент, когда он уступил Петросяну право играть матч с Фишером.... Впрочем, это их дело -- дело их совести. Это случилось в Брюсселе, в 1986 году. Я претендовал в турнире на первое место и, чтоб завоевать его, должен был непременно выиграть у Корчного. Это был мой последний шанс. Я хорошо настроился, но выказал это не сразу: у меня были черные. Я выждал, чтобы Корчной проявил свои намерения, и, когда он показал, что хочет только ничью и уже настроен на ничью, я стал играть резко, резче, чем обычно.

There are few figures in history to whom so much research, literary biographies, memoirs, novels and films have been devoted than the Siberian "wise man" Grigory Rasputin (1872-1916). Even an opera has been written about him, which was performed on the stage of City Opera in New York City. Yet Rasputin did not have a rank, title or even an official status in the court or political system of Russia. Nevertheless, his role was so great that his name became a household word, and the term "Rasputinism" became a symbol of the disintegration of ruling elite of the country. Grigory Rasputin had a completely unique position at court: he was a "seer," "healer" and "friend" of the Tsar's family. It was on that basis that he interfered in matters of state. Hundreds of books have been written about Rasputin, but very few people know that Rasputin had a book of his own. My pilgrimage to Jerusalem was published only once in Petrograd in 1915 in a print run of only 50 copies. The book was intended for the sovereign Nikolai II, to whom Rasputin had become close as a healer of the Tsarevich, the Tsar's son Alexey, who famously suffered from hemophilia. The reasons for Rasputin's pilgrimage to the Holy Land stemmed from a growing dissatisfaction with his influence over the Tsar. Nikolai II proposed that Rasputin leave the capital for a few months, and so in March 1911, Rasputin and a group of Russian pilgrims journeyed out for Jerusalem. The existence of Rasputin's book first came to our attention through a passing mention of it in the memoirs of Liberty Publishing House's author Edward Topol. We located a rare facsimile copy of the book in the archives of the New York Public Library, and decided it was time and a worthy endeavor to reintroduce the work of the mysterious Rasputin. My Pilgrimage to Jerusalem is bilingual English/Russian.

Samilenko takes us on a fascinating ride through 20th century Ukraine and its tragic history, as experienced by two Ukrainians and two Jews. Samilenko's describes what can only be called the genocide of the peasants. She includes the GULAGs, labor camps in Karelia, especially "Solovki" located in the former "Solovetsky" Monastery on a Northern island where inmates starved and froze to death.

По образованию Г. X. Попов экономист, по роду занятий - ученый, по темпераменту - общественный деятель, ярый поборник перестройки. После перехода правящей номенклатуры в 2000 г. к курсу на управляемую демократию, у Попова возникают разногласия с властью. Он выступает против создания административно-бюрократической вертикали, считает необходимым заменить олигархов и их монополизм конкурирующим друг с другом частным бизнесом и настаивает на праве всех граждан иметь свою долю в общем земельном фонде. Г. X. Попов выдвинул альтернативную номенклатуре и олигархии концепцию российской модели постиндустриального общества и российского варианта перехода к нему. В этой концепции учтены как национальные традиции России, так и то положительное наследство, которое Россия получила от государственного социализма (например, бесплатное образование). В книге «Война и правда» Попов также высказывает идеи и мысли, идущие вразрез с официальной точкой зрения.
