May-11-08 | | eremite: Lipnitsky was an author of a very instructive book entitled "Problems of Contemporary Chess Theory" (in Russian, Kiev, 1956). The 1st part of this book is very useful for studying positional play, the 2nd one represents quite comprehensive analysis of Ragozin defence on a basis of the 1st part. This book has influenced Fischer. Recently the 1st part was published again in Moscow, but 2nd part was replaced by Lipnitsky's selected games. This book should appear in English in June 2008:

The book about Lipnitsky, as well as the book by Konstantinopolsky about Vsevolod Rauzer, just another famous master from Kiev, were planned by Physcultura & Sport Publishing (Moscow) for 1991 or 1992... |

Sep-19-12 | | brankat: A very talented player. A master candidate in '49, and then shared second in the very strong field of the USSR championship! A great author. It is really incredible that it took more then 50 years to have his work translated. |
