Fifty Shades of Ray
Fifty of Ray Keene's columns written for The Article and The British Chess Magazine, in which his primary aim has been to connect chess to wider political, scientific and cultural concerns.
An Opening Repertoire for White
This updated edition aims to provide all that an average club player needs to know about the opening as White. One line has been selected against each of Black's possible defences, with all the variations giving scope for originality.
World Chess Championship
With FIDE (the World Chess Federation) claiming that its Tournament in Libya - in fact, little more than a rapidplay open - was the world title clincher, this match for the Classical World Chess Championship would confirm one of the two mental matadors -Kramnik or Leko - as the legitimate heir of Steinitz, Alekhine, Fischer and Kasparov. Peter Leko, the Hungarian Grandmaster, qualified from the Dortmund Candidates' Tournament in 2002 to meet Vladimir Kramnik from Moscow, who had unseated Garry Kasparov in London 2000. Although both contenders were noted for their solidity, the clash turned out to be a sporting classic, as Kramnik poured every ounce of energy into the last games in an effort to rescue his title.
How to Play the Opening in Chess
A single-volume guide to playing various chess openings. It explains the ideas behind each major opening so that the reader can establish a feel for the positions which arise, and consequently will be confident of dealing with them in practical play.
The Chess Combination from Philidor to Karpov
Complex analysis is a classic and central area of mathematics, which is studied and exploited in a range of important fields, from number theory to engineering. Introduction to Complex Analysis was first published in 1985, and for this second edition the text has been considerably expanded, while retaining the style of the original. More detailed presentation is given of elementary topics, to reflect the knowledge base of current students. Exercise sets have been substantially revised and enlarged, with carefully graded exercises at the end of each chapter.
The Modern Defence
This Hardinge Simpole Openings Classic reprint represents a landmark in the evolution of openings theory. This ground-breaking treatise on the revolutionary Modern Defence became a Bible for those adventurous players who were prepared to permit the opposition to construct a vast pawn centre - only to dynamite it with violent counter-measures in the middlegame. Such players included Botvinnik, Ivkov, Larsen and Suttles, as well as the two authors who were enthusiastic practitioners of the system.
