All chess players dream of playing a perfect game, full of precisely worked-out, spectacular combinations. This is a near-impossible task in the tournament hall, with the clock ticking, which is one reason why many players prefer to play by post, telephone, fax or e-mail. Here is the ideal introduction to the almost blunder-free world of correspondence chess. All aspects of correspondence chess are covered, by an experienced international competitor: what openings to play, how to prepare for correspondence games, how to avoid clerical errors, and how to get started in the first place.

The Write Move: An Anthology of the Best Writing on Correspondence Chess

'Spiritual intelligence' is the innate ability that all children have in finding greater wonder and purpose in their lives. Natural curiosity, a sense of playfulness and fun, the urge to question these are the resources that all children possess and can use to explore more deeply who they are and what their existence can mean to them. A Moon On Water is intended as a workbook of practical ideas and activities for use in schools that can be applied in a range of contexts across the curriculum; as a basis for philosophical enquiry, for exploring feelings and enhancing emotional resourcefulness, for adding the dimension of values to the subjects and knowledge that children study. In short this book seeks to show children how to connect who they are with what they do, with why they are here. This book contains stores, activities, music and wroksheets mixed and matched to create your own lessons. It also includes two CDs-an audio CD with stories from the book with accompanying music, and a resource CD-ROM which contains printable resources for classroom activities--all designed to enhance the learning process
