Book excerpt: Meet Edward. Also known as Scary Eddy. He's got no parents, no siblings, and has always been on his own. He's bright and ambitious, but he's got anger issues that get in his way. Handling the money for his gang, the Pretoria City Boys, he's looking to build his reputation and move up in rank. Maybe, then, he'll feel accepted. But things don't go according to plan: rehab, painkillers, and chess become his new day-to-day. Along with a volatile romance with one fellow patient and an anger-infused friendship with another. Is his time in rehab an opportunity to start a new life? Could he become a Grand Master of chess and escape his past? Or will he always be Scary Eddy the gangster? Edward's story isn't an easy one to stomach. Sometimes it seems like his life is nothing more than a layered cake of pain and tragedy and loss. But it isn't all bad. Edward shows us that we can learn things and make mistakes, build relationships and break them down, get better and get worse. But can he carry on like this? It's endgame for Edward and only he can choose what his last few moves will be.
Book Synopsis The Complete Chess Swindler by : David Smerdon
Download or read book The Complete Chess Swindler written by David Smerdon and published by New In Chess. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chess is a cruel game. We all know that feeling when your position has gone awry and everything seems hopeless. You feel like resigning. But don’t give up! This is precisely the moment to switch to swindle mode. Master the art of provoking errors and you will be able to turn the tables and escape with a draw – or sometimes even steal the full point! Swindling is a skill that can be trained. In this book, David Smerdon shows how you can use tricks from psychology to marshal hidden resources and exploit your opponent’s biases. In a lost position, your best practical chance often lies not in the computer’s best moves, but in playing your opponent – however bad the evaluation! With an abundance of eye-popping examples and training exercises, Smerdon identifies the four best friends of every chess swindler: your opponent’s impatience, their hubris, their fear, and their need to stay in control. You’ll also learn about such cunning swindling motifs as the Trojan Horse, the decoy trap, the berserk attack, and ‘window-ledging’. So, come and join the Swindlers’ Club, become a great escape artist and dramatically improve your results. In this instructive and wildly entertaining guide, Smerdon shows you how.
Book Synopsis Jonathan Edwards's Turn from the Classic-Reformed Tradition of Freedom of the Will by : Philip John Fisk
Download or read book Jonathan Edwards's Turn from the Classic-Reformed Tradition of Freedom of the Will written by Philip John Fisk and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip J. Fisk offers a critical reappraisal of Jonathan Edwards's Freedom of Will, interpreting Edwards from within his own tradition, Reformed Orthodoxy (±1550-1750), avoiding the outdated paradigms of the conventional interpretation of Edwards and his tradition, a so-called deterministic, reconciliationist Calvinism, and demonstrating from primary sources, such as Harvard and Yale commencement theses and quaestiones, that Edwards departed ways with Reformed Orthodoxy's robust and highly nuanced view of freedom of will, contingency, and necessity.
Book Synopsis Chessboard Magic! by : Irving Chernev
Download or read book Chessboard Magic! written by Irving Chernev and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-05 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the chessplayer, composed endings are an inexhaustible source of entertainment-and this book contains 160 of the most beautiful, most brilliant endings ever composed. These compositions are remarkable enough to justify the title of the volume - Cbessboard Magic! The positions are not arranged by theme, or composers, or alphabetically. The arrangement is haphazard - and purposely so, for your enjoyment. Each ending is meant to give you a fresh surprise. Difficult positions with countless variations have not been included, as this book is meant for pure enjoyment! Not drudgery. Only those endings which display rich originality have been selected. You may want to solve the endings (it is easy enough to cover up the solutions which are right underneath each ending, on the same page) but it is just as much fun to playing the solutions, as the ideas will prove startling enough. This book not only has a happy ending - it has 160 of them!

Book Synopsis Recognizing Your Opponent's Resources by : Mark Dvoretsky
Download or read book Recognizing Your Opponent's Resources written by Mark Dvoretsky and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Know Thy Enemy” Sun Tsu, The Art of War Understanding what your opponent is planning to do or trying to accomplish is one of the core skills required to take your game to the next level. Viktor Kortchnoi once wrote, Well, if you do not check what your opponent is doing, you will end up complaining about bad luck after every game. This book consists of four chapters, all associated with the ability to think not only for yourself, but also for your opponent, to put yourself in his place. In this book, renowned author and chess trainer Mark Dvoretsky supplies the reader with high-quality material for independent training. Each chapter starts with a short theoretical section. Then dozens of exercises are given, from easy, even elementary, to difficult. Training your skills in searching for a move and calculating variations will help you at all stages of the game – which is why among the almost 500 exercises, there are opening, middlegame and endgame positions. Finally, the comments in the Solutions are quite detailed. Throughout the book, the author has tried to set forth the logic of the search for a solution, to show how a player can come to the right conclusions at the board. Recognizing Your Opponent’s Resources is virtually unique in chess literature. And Sun Tsu would surely have approved...

Download or read book Steinitz in London written by Tim Harding and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2020-08-27 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on new research, this biography of William Steinitz (1836-1900), the first World Chess Champion, covers his early life and career, with a fully-sourced collection of his known games until he left London in 1882. A portrait of mid-Victorian British chess is provided, including a history of the famous Simpson's Divan. Born to a poor Jewish family in Prague, Steinitz studied in Vienna, where his career really began, before moving to London in 1862, bent on conquering the chess world. During the next 20 years, he became its strongest and most innovative player, as well as an influential writer on the game. A foreigner with a quarrelsome nature, he suffered mockery and discrimination from British amateur players and journalists, which eventually drove him to immigrate to America. The final chapters cover his subsequent visits to England and the last three tournaments he played there.

Book Synopsis The Reign of Edward II by : Gwilym Dodd
Download or read book The Reign of Edward II written by Gwilym Dodd and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2006 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new review of the most significant issues of Edward II's reign. Edward II presided over a turbulent and politically charged period of English history, but to date he has been relatively neglected in comparison to other fourteenth and fifteenth-century kings. This book offers a significant re-appraisal of a much maligned monarch and his historical importance, making use of the latest empirical research and revisionist theories, and concentrating on people and personalities, perceptions and expectations, rather than dry constitutional analysis. Papers consider both the institutional and the personal facets of Edward II's life and rule: his sexual reputation, the royal court, the role of the king's household knights, the nature of law and parliament in the reign, and England's relations with Ireland and Europe. Contributors: J.S. HAMILTON, W.M. ORMROD, IAN MORTIMER, MICHAEL PRESTWICH, ALISTAIR TEBBIT, W.R. CHILDS, PAUL DRYBURGH, ANTHONY MUSSON, GWILYM DODD, ALISON MARSHALL, MARTYN LAWRENCE, SEYMOUR PHILLIPS.

Download or read book The Sunne In Splendour written by Sharon Kay Penman and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2008-01-22 with total page 945 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic, magnificent bestselling novel about Richard III, now in a special thirtieth anniversary edition with a new preface by the author In this triumphant combination of scholarship and storytelling, Sharon Kay Penman redeems Richard III—vilified as the bitter, twisted, scheming hunchback who murdered his nephews, the princes in the Tower—from his maligned place in history. Born into the treacherous courts of fifteenth-century England, in the midst of what history has called The War of the Roses, Richard was raised in the shadow of his charismatic brother, King Edward IV. Loyal to his friends and passionately in love with the one woman who was denied him, Richard emerges as a gifted man far more sinned against than sinning. With revisions throughout and a new author's preface discussing the astonishing discovery of Richard's remains five centuries after his death, Sharon Kay Penman's brilliant classic is more powerful and glorious than ever.
