[1] It is an important endgame for chess players to master, since most other endgames have the potential of reducing to this type of endgame via exchanges of pieces.
Some examples of this may be that the king and queen are flipped, or the knight on the b-file is traded with the bishop on the f-file. Double Chess by Julian Hayward.
