The Silicon Road to Chess Improvement Chess Engine Training Methods, Opening Strategies & Middlegame Techniques【電子書籍】[ Matthew Sadler ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>‘How can I learn from AlphaZero’s games, aren’t they too advanced for me?’ many club players asked Matthew Sadler after reading his and Natasha Regan’s groundbreaking Game Changer. Here is the answer: you may not be able to replicate their dazzling deep calculations, but every chess player, from club level up, can improve their game by using engines. You will probably be surprised, there is so much more your engine can do for you than just checking and calculating variations!</p> <p>In this thought-provoking new book, based on many years of working with the world’s best chess software, Sadler presents a unique set of methods to work out using your engine. He shows how in your opening preparation, instead of sifting through masses of computer analysis you should play matches against your engine. He also explains how to train your early middlegame play, the conversion of advantages, your positional play, and your defence. And of course: how to analyse your own games.</p> <p>These generic training methods Sadler supplements with concrete middlegame and opening tools. He explains how the top engines tackle crucial middlegame themes such as entrenched pieces, whole board play, ‘attacking rhythm’, exchanging pieces, the march of the Rook’s pawn, queen versus pieces, and many others. He also opens your eyes to typical scenarios that the engines found and fine-tuned in popular openings such as the King’s Indian, the Gr?nfeld, the Slav, the French and the Sicilian.</p> <p>Sadler illustrates his lessons with a collection of fantastic games, explained with his trademark enthusiasm. For the first time the superhuman powers of the chess engine have been decoded to the benefit of all players, in a rich and highly instructive book.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Creativity and "the Paris Review" Interviews A Discourse Analysis of Famous Writers' Composing Practices【電子書籍】[ Ronda Leathers Dively ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>C<em>reativity and</em> The Paris Review <em>Interviews: A Discourse Analysis of Famous Writers' Composing Practices</em> centers around a thematic discourse analysis of a 2000-page corpus of <em>Paris Review</em> interviews, focusing on the creative processes of some of the world's most famous fiction-writers and poets. The discourse analysis traces elements of the paradigmatic creative-process modelーfirst insight, preparation, incubation, insight, verificationーthrough the focal artists’ descriptions of their composing practices as embedded in the interview transcripts. That analysis also reveals multiple and significantemergent themes germane to fiction and poetry writing. The ultimate goal of this analysis is to identify patterns relevant to the aforementioned creative-process elements and themes that are suggestive of specific strategies writers can employ to facilitate their own composing actsーwhether fictional, poetic, or expository. Such findings will also benefit teachers seeking to facilitate student success in the composition classroom. Such applications to expository writing are bolstered by a thorough treatment of scholarship on intersections between creativity theory and composition theory.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Finding the News Adventures of a Young Reporter【電子書籍】[ Peter Copeland ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>Finding the News</em> tells Peter Copeland’s fast-paced story of becoming a distinguished journalist. Starting in Chicago as a night police reporter, Copeland went on to work as a war correspondent in Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa before covering national politics in Washington, DC, where he rose to be bureau chief of the E. W. Scripps Company. The lessons he learned about accuracy and fairness during his long career are especially relevant today, given widespread concerns about the performance of the media, potential bias, and the proliferation of so-called “fake news.” He offers an honest and revealing narrative, told with surprising humor, about how he learned the craft of news reporting.</p> <p>Copeland’s story begins in 1980, when a colleague hastily declared him a full-fledged reporter after barely four days of training. He went on to learn the business the old-fashioned way: by chasing the news in thirty countries and across five continents. As a young person entering journalism and reporting during some of recent history’s most fraught military situationsー including Operation Desert Storm and the US invasions of Panama and SomaliaーCopeland discovered the craft was his calling. Looking back on his career, Copeland asserts his most important lessons were not about reporting, writing, or the latest technologies, but about the core values that underlie quality journalism: accuracy, fairness, and speed.</p> <p>Replete with behind-the-scenes stories about learning the trade, Copeland’s inspiring account builds into a heartfelt defense of journalism “done the right way” and serves as a call to action for today’s reporters. The values he learned as a cub reporter are needed now more than ever, he argues, as the integrity and motives of even seasoned journalists are called into question by political partisans. Copeland admits that those critics are not entirely wrong but contends that exciting new technologies, combined with a return to old-school news values, could usher in a golden age of journalism.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>At a time when justice was written in blood on the landowner walls,and the voice of the people was buried under the boots of the emperor,the forest was the only one that whispered the truth.The land of Wallachia groaned under the yoke of domination and betrayal,and a handful of determined people carried in their chests not only swords,but also the unquenchable fire of freedom.These were the Sons of the Outlaws,risen from the shadow of the forests,born of pain and raised by revenge.At the edge of a world shrouded in dangers,where rulers changed like the wind,and the Sultan of Istanbul stretched his claws over every corner of the earth,a single name was whispered,but with fear and hope alike:Vlad who aims well,the leader of the Outlaws.Next to him,a woman named Rada who was not only beautiful as the night of summer,but also strong like the spells inherited from the blood of the gypsies.Around them,homeless people gathered,but with a soul of steel,wanderers and dreamers,brothers of the sword and of suffering.In the hiding places of the forests,in caves forgotten by the world,in fairs where words were sold more expensively than bread,an unforgettable story was woven,not only about the fight against injustice,but also about love,sacrifice and the call of an unwritten future.But freedom always has a price.And when the heart of a gypsy loves an outlaw,and the blood of a child bears the sign of reign,the entire fate of the country can be overturned.<br /> This is their story.<br /> The story of those who chose to live in the shadows,so that the nation would not perish on its knees.<br /> The story of those who risked everything, for a ray of light.<br /> The Story of the Outlaws' Sons.And it all began with a betrayal,a spell, and a childhood dream.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Festival of Shadows A Dance of Obsidian Butterflies【電子書籍】[ Lisa Diaze ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Escape the ordinary and journey into a world where vibrant traditions mask ancient secrets. In Oaxaca, the air vibrates with the intoxicating rhythm of the Festival of Shadows, a mesmerizing celebration where the veil between worlds thins, and the whispers of spirits carry on the wind. Elena Ramirez, a Chicana photographer fleeing the spectral echoes of her heritage, arrives not as a tourist, but as a woman on the cusp of a destiny she scarcely understands. Her grandmother's enchanted camera, a mystical conduit to the unseen, captures not just images, but the ethereal remnants of souls caught between realms.</p> <p>Amidst the swirling cempas?chil petals and flickering candlelight of ofrendas, Elena encounters Miguel Flores, a captivating Nahual shape-shifter and guardian of the delicate balance between life and death. He recognizes in Elena a dormant power, a kindred spirit yearning to awaken. Miguel unveils a realm beyond the vibrant spectacle of D?a de los Muertos, a world where benevolent Alebrijes, guardians of dreams, clash with malevolent Tzitzimime, skeletal star demons ravenous for human souls. This ancient conflict, born from a celestial betrayal during the reign of Quetzalcoatl, threatens to tear asunder the veil and plunge the world into eternal night.</p> <p>Elena’s photography becomes an unexpected weapon, her lens capturing and manipulating spiritual energy, unknowingly influencing the very fabric of existence. As her powers surge, the Tzitzimime, drawn to her burgeoning potential, see in her either a beacon of balance or a harbinger of everlasting darkness. Miguel, bound by duty and an undeniable attraction to Elena’s fiery spirit, mentors her, unlocking the secrets of her ancestry and the forgotten language of light woven into her grandmother’s whispered prayers. Their bond deepens amidst escalating danger, a fragile flower blooming in the shadow of impending doom. Yet, Miguel harbors a secret, a sacrifice made centuries ago, tethering his fate to the very darkness he combats.</p> <p>Elena’s journey intertwines with Isabella Cruz, a skeptical journalist drawn into the supernatural vortex of the festival, her investigative prowess a crucial asset in unraveling ancient mysteries. Simultaneously, Elena's grandmother's spirit, Abuela Emilia, appears, offering cryptic guidance and unwavering support, bridging Elena's past and present. As the final night of the festival approaches, the Dance of the Obsidian Butterfly, a ritual shrouded in myth, becomes the only hope for salvation. But the Tzitzimime, led by their formidable queen, Itzpapalotl, intensify their assault. The streets of Oaxaca transform into a battleground, the vibrant festival decorations a stark contrast to the desperate struggle for survival.</p> <p>Miguel’s secret unravels: he is the key to sealing the Tzitzimime, a sacrifice he made centuries ago. Elena faces a heart-wrenching choice, allow Miguel’s sacrifice or forge a new path, potentially jeopardizing the balance between worlds. In a breathtaking climax, Elena, empowered by her photographic magic and fueled by love, captures the essence of the Tzitzimime, weaving their power into a photographic tapestry that binds them within her camera’s lens. This act of artistic defiance subverts destiny, offering a new equilibrium.</p> <p>*Festival of Shadows* is a captivating tale of heritage, sacrifice, and the enduring power of love. It's a vibrant tapestry woven with Mexican folklore, where ancient magic collides with modern skepticism, and the whispers of the spirit world guide the way toward a deeper understanding of ourselves and the universe we inhabit.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
