This book is a work by Gia Antonovich Nadareishvili (1921–1991), a world-renowned Georgian chess composer, International Grandmaster (1980), and two-time USSR Champion in chess studies (1971, 1972). Published in Tbilisi in 1986, it delves into the artistic and aesthetic principles of chess composition—the creation of chess problems and endgame studies. Nadareishvili, who later chaired the USSR Chess Composition Commission, explores the pursuit of beauty, originality, and economy of means within the strict logical framework of chess. A copy bearing the author's autograph adds significant value, transforming it from a scholarly work into a personal artifact from one of the most celebrated figures in the history of chess composition.
