Most chess biographies present the games of famous players--but not
their writings. Filling that gap, this book begins with Syrian
master and author of chess studies Philip Stamma, and finishes with
the first world champion William Steinitz. The main novelties in
opening, middlegame and endgame theory in the 160 year period are
examined and biographical sketches put the contributions of more
than 30 masters into context. The author presents many new
insights--for example, regarding the origins of the Ponziani
Opening, the Dutch Defense and the Petroff Defense. French star La
Bourdonnais used other sources for almost every part of his Nouveau
Traite. Morphy's analysis of the Philidor Defense was faulty and
Anderssen's play included many positional ideas. Harrwitz and
Neumann published modern treatises long before Steinitz came out
with his Modern Chess Instructor. Many ending themes belong to less
well-known authors, such as Cozio, Chapais, van Zuylen van Nyevelt,
Sarratt, Kling and Horwitz, Berger and Salvio.
The third edition of this book incorporates more than 10 years of
fascinating dynamics since the entry into force of the Lisbon
Treaty. Apart from analysing the general basis of the Union's
external action and its relationship to international law, the book
explores the law and practice of the EU in more specialized fields
of external action, such as common commercial policy, neighbourhood
policy, development cooperation, cooperation with third countries,
humanitarian aid, external environmental policy, and common foreign
and security policy, as well as EU sanctions. Five years after the
second edition published, this fully updated edition contains major
developments within the law itself, along with changes and
restructuring of the themes within the book. Carefully selected
primary documents are accompanied with analytic commentary on the
issues they raise and their significance for the overall structure
of EU external relations law. The primary materials selected
include many important legal documents that are hard to find
elsewhere but give a vital insight into the operation of EU
external relations law in practice.
