WORD FROM THE AUTHOR
Dear readers, in front of you is a reference book for FIDE Laws of Chess, titles and rating. First edition which was printed four years ago is now assimilated with changes and additions adopted at the Congress in Dresden 2008 during the Olympics, coming into force on 1. July 2009.
This time author dedicated more space to blitz chess (fast chess) which causes doubts and controversy in praxis but among chess players blitz chess is the favorite. This part (FIDE Laws of Chess) is printed in two languages as previous (in two rows – author’s protected patent) for practical reasons, with commentary on the Laws and many practical examples which make this book unique and authentic.
In this part we give you authors general view on changes in chess legal act, which is elaborated in reference book (FIDE Laws of Chess, International Title Regulations and Rating Regulations), by publishing the text which “SAH MAT LISTA” and “Vojvodjanski sah” ( number 2, April 25th 2009) took from the site www.chessdiagonals.com
