The Italian Gambit and a Guiding Repertoire for White: E4

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Volume I New ideas, technical novelties an more on the age old Italian game with 4,d4!, allowing the sharp and forcing `Italian Gambit` to emerge. This move, a surprising one to many, transforms the classic `Giouco Piano` or literally the quiet game into anything but its revered and somewhat sedate namesake. Black`s third move, 3…Bc5 seems `safe` and allows the second player plenty of time to develop (quietly) for positional play. This will occur on White playing almost any reasonable move, except for the center assaulting initiative gaining 4.d4!…being the main focus of this endeavor. 4.d4! is clearly a forcing move, Black must react! Whatever unfolds from this point, White will have central control, lead in development, the initiative and it is White not Black who will get the first emerging opportunitites. Accurate play by Black is necessary to hold and neutralize the initial gains of opposition, and it will be difficult to demonstrate… [detailed...]

The Ivy Tree

This remarkably atmospheric novel is one of bestselling-author Mary Stewart`s richest, most tantalizing, and most surprising efforts, proving her a rare master of the genre. [detailed...]

When Commodore Perry opened Japan, ending the long-standing feudalism and isolation of the Tokugawa Shoganate, Japan`s reaction to the West was unique among Asian countries--and it changed the course of history. The newly established Meiji government sent a large delegation on a tour of Western countries to report on how Japan might modernize its political, economic, and social infrastructure. This embassy of some fifty top officials was headed by Iwakura Tomomi and included such luminaries as Ito Hirobumi and Kido Takayoshi. These emissaries journeyed to the United States and eleven European countries, making thorough investigations into each country`s politics, military affairs, trade and industry, education, and culture. Their reports, which helped Japan emerge as a modern industrial nation, constitute an indispensable documentary resource. The reports comprise five… [detailed...]

The J Curve: A New Way to Understand Why Nations Rise and Fall

Publisher: Simon &, Schuster
Description: Locate nations on the J Curve -- left for authoritarian, right for democratic. Then figure out how to force those on the left to open their societies, rather than encouraging them to shut them tighter by further isolating them. The West`s isolation of Kim Jong-il`s North Korea gives him the cover he needs to extend his brutal regime (the mistake the U.S. made for a long time with Saddam Hussein and Castro), in Saudi Arabia, western governments should encourage manageable change before the country breaks apart, they should help strengthen China`s economy so it can further liberalize, they must encourage Israel to decide what kind of country it will be. Filled with imaginative and surprising examples of how to correct outworn political ideas, The J Curve points the way for western governments to lead the way to a realistic political balance and a healthier economic future.

Description: Jackie Handbook is a groundbreaking new interpretation of the life of Jackie Kennedy Onassis and the extraordinary influence of the image she so carefully crafted. It is illustrated with some 300 photographs and other images which bring to life Jackie`s iconic status. Ten years since her death, fascination with Jackie O remains as strong as ever, especially among women and in the fashion world. The authors explore the woman behind - and in many ways the creator of - the many myths by which we remember a woman of extraordinary poise and single-mindedness. In the Jackie O Handbook, the authors venture behind Jackie`s trademark dark glasses and regal bearing to reveal the insecurities, the playfulness, the wit, the loyalty to friends and the ruthlessness with enemies of a woman who seemed more a figure from 18th century Versailles than from 20th century America. The book chronicles Jackie`s life from childhood through her student years, her marriages to America`s most charismatic… [detailed...]

The Jacobean Country House: From the Archives of Country Life

Description: The gabled manor houses of the early 17th century are, for many, the epitome of the English country house, indeed, Jacobean houses form the core of the National Trust collection. Richly illustrated with colour and duotone photographs from Country Life`s unparalleled archive, this book tells the absorbing story of the evolution of the Jacobean country house. Though the Jacobean period itself spanned only 22 years (1603-25), it was to have a major impact on English domestic architecture. This was an exciting period of experiment and discovery, with an extraordinary range of architectural styles being brought into play. Plain Classical formality coexisted with French, Italian and Dutch examples adapted to English tastes, the result of an explosion in new ideas that also produced revolutions in other aspects of life, notably the English Civil War.

The same year that he closed his last location, however, his work was featured in the exhibition Harlem on My Mind at New York`s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Although the exhibition was controversial, the attention that it attracted to VanDerZee`s work finally brought the photographer, at age 83, the acclaim he deserved. This intimate catalogue recalls the environment in which VanDerZee worked and lived. While he did make portraits of local celebrities, including the stars of the many legitimate theaters open in Harlem before the war, his real bread-and-butter were… [detailed...]
