Smyslov, Bronstein, Geller, Taimanov and Averbakh
Author: Andrew Soltis
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 147664053X
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
A crucial decision spared chess Grandmaster David Bronstein almost certain death at the hands of the Nazis--one fateful move cost him the world championship. Russian champion Mark Taimanov was a touted as a hero of the Soviet state until his loss to Bobby Fischer all but ruined his life. Yefim Geller's dream of becoming world champion was crushed by a bad move against Fischer, his hated rival. Yuri Averbakh had no explanation how he became the world's oldest grandmaster, other than the quixotic nature of fate. Vasily Smyslov, the only one of the five to become world champion, would reign for just one year--fortune, he said, gave him pneumonia at the worst possible time. This book explores how fate played a capricious role in the lives of five of the greatest players in chess history.

Burnout Among Social Workers
Author: David F Gillespie
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136551719
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
The phenomenon of burnout first became the subject of public attention in the mid-1970s. This landmark volume is one of the first devoted exclusively to theoretical and empirical work on burnout. Each valuable chapter represents the state of the art in social services research on burnout. Burnout Among Social Workers illustrates and assesses problems with definitions and theoretical orientations to help clarify the overall conceptual vagueness that has plagued burnout research since its beginning. Attention is paid to both personal and job-related variables and coping mechanisms. Expert social work academicians and researchers clearly demonstrate the importance of burnout measurement for theory and practice and establish important guidelines for subsequent research and theory development in this area.

Memory Development Between Two and Twenty
Author: Wolfgang Schneider
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1134802625
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 427
Book Description
In this volume, two scholars with different but complementary interests in memory and cognitive development present a careful overview of the field of memory development from the perspective of their theory of good strategy use. In addition to treating broad topics of general interest, such as knowledge, cognitive capacity, and metamemory, the text also examines controversial issues surrounding the development of children's memory--particularly eyewitness memory. The result is a coherent statement about memory development accompanied by commentary on the study of memory development, plus applications of the theory and research in the area. This book is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers and other professionals interested in child and adolescent memory.

Children's Thinking

Publisher: Wadsworth Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 586
Book Description
Consistent with the direction the field of developmental psychology is heading towards (an expanded vision that gives greater attention to individual differences and cultural variation), Bjorklunds extensively revised new edition offers a unique theme: individual differences in cognition can be most profitably understood by a consideration of developmental function. Capturing the flavor and excitement of the field, Bjorklund offers several new chapters, including groundbreaking coverage of social cognition, biology, culture and cognition, and emerging theories. Rather than taking a selective approach, Bjorklund extensively summarizes theory and research, offering breadth of coverage and an empirical perspective
