The Sicilian Sveshnikov variation is a increasingly popular line in the Sicilian Defense. Evegny Sveshnikov, who the variation is named after is a Russian Grand Master who was the main driving force in the development of the variation in the 1970's. He became an IM in 1975 and a GM in 1977. He reached a peak rating of 2610 in January 1994 and now resides in Riga. Since the 1970's other GM's, such as Kasparov, Kramnik and Leko, have joined him in the development and advancement of this interesting opening. I enjoy the variation because of the imbalance of the position and the relative newness of the entire line. This gives me an advantage because many people don't know the theory or rational for the line. The Variation begins 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 e5 6.Ndb5 d6. If the player with the black pieces doesn't play 6d6 then the reply is 7.Nd6+, which has worked out very well for White in both tournaments and practice. After 6d6 the Sveshnikov continues 7.Bg5 a6 8.Na3 b5. This is the beginning setup for the Sveshnikov line. 9.Bxf6 gxf6. 9Qxf6 isn't good because it allows Nd5 attacking the Queen forcing Black to move his Lady to a poor square or retreat and lose some tempi. 10.Nd5 attacking the f6 pawn. 10f5, here I like to play 10.Bd3, which backing up the pawn. Condition: Old price sticker to front wrapper, edge wear else very good.

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. 42 pages with diagrams. Octavo (8 14" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial stapled wrappers. First edition. The Najdorf Variation of the Sicilian Defence is one of the most popular, reputable, and deeply studied of all chess openings. Modern Chess Openings calls it the "Cadillac" or "Rolls-Royce" of chess openings.[4] The opening is named after the Polish-Argentine grandmaster Miguel Najdorf, although he was not the first strong player to play the variation.[5] Many players have relied on the Najdorf (notably Bobby Fischer and Garry Kasparov, although Kasparov would often transpose into a Scheveningen). The Najdorf begins: 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 a6 Black's 5.a6 aims to deny the b5-square to White's knights and light-square bishop while maintaining flexible development. If Black plays 5.e5?! immediately, then after 6.Bb5+! Bd7 (or 6.Nbd7 7.Nf5) 7.Bxd7+ Nbxd7 (or Qxd7) 8.Nf5, the knight on f5 is difficult to dislodge without concessions. Games in the Najdorf frequently feature opposite-side castling, where White castles long and both sides launch simultaneous attacks on their opponents' kings. Condition: Light edge wear with bumped corners else very good.

The King's Gambit is a chess opening that begins with the moves: 1. e4 e5 2. f4 White offers a pawn to divert the black e-pawn. If Black accepts the gambit, White may play d4 and Bxf4, regaining the gambit pawn with central domination, or direct their forces against the weak square f7 with moves such as Nf3, Bc4, 0-0, and g3. A downside to the King's Gambit is that it weakens White's king's position, exposing it to the latent threat of .Qh4+ (or .Be7h4+), which may force White to give up castling rights. Condition: Light edge wear with gently bumped corners, some soiling of wrappers else very good.

The King's Indian Defence (or KID) is a common chess opening. It is defined by the following moves: 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 g6 Black intends to follow up with 3.Bg7 and 4.d6 (the Grünfeld Defence arises when Black plays 3.d5 instead and is considered a separate opening). White's major third move options are 3.Nc3, 3.Nf3 or 3.g3, with both the King's Indian and Grünfeld playable against these moves. The Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings classifies the King's Indian Defence under the codes E60 through E99. Condition: Light edge else very good.

Etat : Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 392 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Fundamentals of Surgical Simulation explains in detail, from a behavioural science/human factors perspective, why modern image guided medicine such as surgery, interventional cardiology and interventional radiology are difficult to learn and practice. Medicine is currently at a tipping point in terms of how physicians in procedural based medicine are trained. Fundamentals of Surgical Simulation helps drive this change and is a valuable resource for medical trainers and trainees alike. For trainers, this book gives explicit theoretical and applied information on how this new training paradigm works thus allowing them to tailor the application of simulation training to their program, no matter where in the world they work. For the trainee, it allows them to see and understand the rules of this new training paradigm thus allowing them to optimize their approach to training and reaching proficiency in as efficient a manner as possible. For the simulation researcher, engineer and medical profession Fundamentals of Surgical Simulation poses some difficult questions that require urgent unambiguous and agreed answers.
