Pawns provide chess with structure and strategic depth. Without them, chess would merely be a primitive shoot-out between the pieces. This book is a general guide to pawn structures, and their importance in forming and executing plans, and is the first book to tackle this fundamental aspect of chess for many years. Grandmaster Baburin provides a modern view of pawn structure, having been trained in Russia, and battle-hardened in open tournaments in Western Europe. Now based in Ireland, he is frequent tournament winner world-wide, a contributor to ChessBase Magazine and a chess trainer. AUTHOR: Alexander Baburin

 | Keith Carter
In his most recent series, HOLDING VENUS, Keith Carter continues to explore what he has referred to as the poetry of the ordinary, that moment of transcendence when the commonplace becomes the extraordinary. Myth and metaphor form the foundation of Carter's imagery, which transforms the literal into the symbolic. In this sense the notion of holding Venus remarks upon the connection between the earthly and the celestial at the same time that it attests to the fundamental human aspiration to realize that which is seemingly unattainable....Accompanying Keith Carter's most recent images is an essay by John Wood, who is the author of several prize-winning books of poetry and photographic criticism, including the recently released Selected Poems 1968-1998, His essays on a wide variety of subjects have appeared in many books and journals. Wood is the editor of 21st: THE JOURNAL OF CONTEMPORARY PHOTOGRAPHY.
