The solutions to these positions feature a wealth of practical advice and further discussion of endgame principles and the key theoretical points. All the main types of endgames are covered: pawn endings, minor-piece endings, rook endings and queen endings. Rosen discusses important elements in endgame strategy, such as pawn-structure, passed pawns, space advantage, breakthrough and Zugzwang.

There is a wealth of exercises throughout the book.

Pages : 66
Book Description
Greece isn't the only country drowning in debt. The Debt Supercycle—when the easily managed, decades-long growth of debt results in a massive sovereign debt and credit crisis—is affecting developed countries around the world, including the United States. For these countries, there are only two options, and neither is good—restructure the debt or reduce it through austerity measures.

The book: Reveals why the world economy is in for an extended period of sluggish growth, high unemployment, and volatile markets punctuated by persistent recessions Reviews global markets, trends in population, government policies, and currencies Around the world, countries are faced with difficult choices. Endgame provides a framework for making those choices.

End Game

Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 1800736223
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 532
Book Description
The fall of the Berlin Wall, and the chain of events leading up to it, arguably constitute one of the most thoroughly documented episodes in recent history. Nonetheless, most accounts have focused predominantly on high-level politics and diplomacy along with the most dramatic and photogenic public displays. End Game, a rich, sweeping account of the autumn of 1989 as it was experienced “on the ground” in the German Democratic Republic, powerfully depicting the desolation and dysfunction that shaped everyday life for so many East Germans in the face of economic disruption and political impotence. Citizens’ frustration mounted until it bubbled over in the form of massive demonstrations and other forms of protest. Following the story up to the first free elections in March 1990, the volume combines abundant detail with sharp analysis and helps us to see this familiar historical moment through new eyes.

Book Description
Welcome to the ferocious world of The Foundling. This is the unmissable climax to Hailey Edwards's epic The Foundling series, featuring the fiercest heroine in this world or any other: Luce Boudreau. __________________ Orphan. Daughter. Cop. Villain . . . Savior? This has all happened before. For millennia, our world has been the only remaining stone in the proverbial shoe of the universe's most powerful forces. Their continued failure to conquer Earth has led to this: their last chance for success, and for Luce and her coterie, their only chance to save mankind, their own lives, and the world. As the last war begins, Luce and her mate Cole face danger on every front, from the angels and their all-powerful leader, from the demon inside Luce who will take any chance to break free from her pesky humanity, to the secrets her so-called allies seem to be keeping. Worst of all, they've got to keep finding new babysitters for one small, extremely loyal, far-too-fearless and very determined baby dragon. At least Luce and Cole are in it together . . . or that's what Cole thinks. For Luce is keeping a secret. She might be able to save the world, but she won't be able to save herself. As the end of days draws near, Luce must do everything she can to hide the truth, for the sake of those she loves . . . __________________ Discover why readers are OBSESSED with Hailey Edwards 'An inventive and multifaceted world with serious heart and one hell of an emotional kick, this is a series that needs to be on your TBR' Bookish Em 'Edwards creates amazing fantasy worlds' (Goodreads reviewer) 'A fantasy of a five-star read!'
