Can average chess players learn to plan their games like a grandmaster? Anatoly Karpov—the winningest world champion in history—says yes! With examples from his own matches, he breaks planning down into logical steps: evaluate the position, mobilize your forces, guard against threats to your king, control open lines. Through an orderly process, the attentive student will arrive at not just a plan, but the right plan. And as Karpov himself says, “Finding the right plan is the key to success.” Warmly and accessibly written, the book is an irresistible invitation to absorb a bit

Millions of people want to know the origin of the words they use. Word columns in daily newspapers and numerous books attempt to satisfy their curiosity. Word histories are usually digested like pills: the user is interested in getting well, not in the chemistry of the prescribed medication. Those who send letters to the Editor also want a straight answer without bothering about how editors" come by their knowledge. Therefore, they fail to realize that etymologies are seldom definitive and that the science of etymology is intensely interesting. Perhaps if someone explained to them that, compar

This book is devoted to new trends in random evolution and their applications to the stochastic evolutionary system. It contains new developments such as an analogue of Dynkin’s formula, boundary value problems, stability and control of random evolutions, stochastic evolutionary equations, and driven martingale measures. In addition, it treats statistics of random evolutions processes, statistics of financial stochastic models, and stochastic stability and control of financial markets. Audience: This volume will be of interest to research and applied mathematicians working in t

`History: Fiction or Science?` is the most explosive tractate on history and chronology ever written. This book is not another conspiracy theory - every hypothesis it contains is backed by solid scientific data. The book is well-illustrated, contains 446 graphs and illustrations, copies of ancient manuscripts, and countless facts attesting to the falsity of the chronology used nowadays. You will be amazed to discover: - That the chronology universally taken for granted is indeed wrong; - That this chronology was essentially invented in the XVI-XVII century; - That archaeologic
