Sinossi

"Chess Core Rules" serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding and applying the fundamental regulations of chess, as recognized by FIDE. This reference book focuses on three main areas: piece movements, standard game rules, and special moves like castling and en passant. Mastering these rules is essential not only for playing the game but also for strategic thinking and fair play. Did you know that a stalemate is a draw condition where the player to move has no legal moves and is not in check? The book progresses logically, beginning with the history of chess rules before thoroughly detailing each chess piece's permissible movements. It then covers standard regulations, including checkmate and draw conditions, before moving on to special moves. Finally, the book addresses rule violations and penalties in tournament play. Diagrams and examples clarify complex scenarios. This book uniquely focuses solely on current, officially sanctioned rules, making it a valuable reference for beginners, seasoned players, coaches, and tournament organizers alike.

How To Watch Soccer Like a...

Nick Greene

A brilliant and entertaining deconstruction of the most popular sport in the world, just in time for the 2026 World Cup in North America, from the bestselling author of How to Watch Basketball Like a Genius 
 
In How to Watch Soccer Like a Genius, Nick Greene calls on a turf manager, an expert on color theory, and a landscape historian to understand the field itself, a paleoanthropologist to talk kicking, and an Anglican priest to explain schisms—how American football, soccer, and rugby could all develop from the field games of rowdy nineteenth-century British schoolboys. 
 
Greene delves deep into what defines the game, how it developed, and what happens during a match's ninety minutes (and then some). His expert commentators include a domino toppler, a developmental neuroscientist, an art historian, a civil engineer, and more. 
 
On the surface, soccer seems like the simplest of games: one ball, two teams, two goals, and (preferably) some grass. There's a reason it's the first team sport little kids learn to play. But the closer you look, the more you dig into the game's history, the more infinitely complex and complex the picture becomes.
