Book Description
On Valentine's day, 1998, Hedwig and the Angry Inch opened off-Broadway to rave reviews and the phenomenon that is Hedwig was born. In the summer of 2001, John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask's brilliant film adaptation was released to equally glowing reviews. "If the glam-rock era is long gone, Hedwig reminds us, its subversive spirit, which has percolated under the surface of rock culture for more than two decades, lives on," wrote Stephen Holden in The New York Times.
Inspired by Plato's Symposium, Hedwig tells the story of "internationally ignored song stylist" Hedwig Schmidt, the victim of a gruesomely botched sex-change operation, and is dazzlingly recounted by Hedwig (née Hansel) in the form of a sleazy lounge act, and backed by the rocking band, The Angry Inch. Innovative, inspired, and oddly endearing, Hedwig is a spectacular love story that has been "knocking the socks off New York theater-goers with a much-needed jolt of twisted bathos and wigged-out histrionics." (The Advocate)
"Hedwig brings theater alive with the pounding sounds of rock and the funny-sad voicing of a painful past." (The New York Times)
"In the whole long, sorry history of rock musicals, Hedwig and the Angry Inch is the first one that truly rocks." (Rolling Stone)

Great Book/Not the Sheet Music.......2007-05-31
A fellow reviewer left a detailed description of the sheet music/vocal score/piano and guitar score for "Hedwig". This item is not that. It is merely the book of the stage play, and while it is a wonderful collector's piece DO NOT ORDER IT IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR SHEET MUSIC.
Whether You Like It Or Not: "Hedwig" in Sheet Music Form!.......2006-02-02
John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask's Hedwig and the Angry Inch debuted off Broadway in 1999, then gained widespread popularity in 2001 when a film version of the queer-themed rock musical hit theaters. It's a wonder why then fans had to wait till 2004 for a songbook to be released. The bitter wait aside, finally here is Hedwig and the Angry Inch: piano/vocal selections published by Hal Leonard, and if you're a Hedwig fan, better snatch one of these before they're out of print!
THE BASICS:
--Music and Lyrics by Stephen Trask.
--Contents: Tear Me Down (6 pages), Origin of Love (12 pages, Sugar Daddy (8 pages), Angry Inch (6 pages), Wig in a Box (9 pages), Wicked Little Town 9 pages), The Long Grift (4 pages), Hedwig's Lament (2 pages), Exquisite Corpse (5 pages), Wicked Littel Town Reprise (5 pages), Midnight Radio 6 pages).
--70 pages. (Music starts on page 4.)
--No pictures/photos.
--The cover is the Hedwig MOVIE art, but the songs are printed from their 1999 form. So for instance in "Sugar Daddy," there is an "extra" monologue music interlude by Luther that isn't in the film.
--The title says "piano/vocal selections." But note that there are ALSO guitar chords and diagrams for every song!! Songs are arranged so that you have the melodies intertwined (the songs are not just piano accompaniment), and you get all the lyrics too. You get spoken dialogue too in the songs as in Wig in the Box and Tear Me Down.
--ISBN 0-634-06881-4. Not to be confused with the other Hedwig books/libretto/making-of.
OVERALL: ***1/2 stars out of 5.
A great piano solo songbook for lovers of the Hedwig play/film. The songs are arranged from the play, so there are some "extra" lyrics not seen in the film. Arrangements are rich, though at times not very sophisticated. Driving rock beats frequently are arranged as humongous chords. This might sound a little strange in songs like Tear Me Down and Exquisite Corpse, but it works out decently. Songs originally with a piano or piano-based melody like Wig in a Box, WIcked Little Town, and Origin of Love sound beautiful in their piano arrangements here.
Songs are very challenging with heavily-sharp'd/flat'd keys, quirky rhythms and frequent jazz triplets (the quarter-half note combo). In the end of Midnite Radio, the pianist is told to "ad lib" the ending, which something for the novice. The book is too difficult for a beginner, but has potential to sound super for a very skilled pianist. But get the timing down and the melody comes right through. Worth owning this music book while you can still get your hands on it, even if it ends up being too tough to master.
More woman then a man like you can stand!.......2004-06-26
This is, simply put, an amazing work. From the stage production to the written play to the movie adaptation, it is an incredible, gender-blowing glam rock force to be reckoned with. Maybe people will see themselves in Hedwig, and her emotions and beliefs are expressed beautifully, as are the underlying themes in the work. This is truely the only rock-n-roll musical that rocks--or even matters.
Long Live Hedwig.......2000-10-10
For some people, the stage production of Hedwig And The Angry Inch was this greally great Off-Broadway musical. For others it taught them a little bit about themselves, about those around them, and about their lives. John Cameron Mitchell's text laces beautifully with Stephen Trask's lyrics to dish out an emotional beat down that hurts so much you love it.
If you haven't seen it, I'll admit, reading the script isn't going to do it for you, but if you've at least heard of it, go out and get yourself the CD and read along between the songs. There's also some incredible photography to look at, many of which haven't been seen before. You get a semi-decent idea of what's going on on stage, anyway. It's quite a show by some extremely talented people. I will never forget Hedwig or her brain parents as long as I live.
At long last!.......2000-08-08
Well, I guess what I really have to say is, "wow!" I've been listening to the Hedwig soundtrack since it came out, but I never got a chance to see the play, and, consequently, I missed out on a GREAT deal. While this book doesn't replace seeing a show, it does contain the entire script. So now I've caught up and know more exactly what all of those fabulous songs are about!! And what a story . . .
Buy the soundtrack, and if you are at all moved, the next logical step is to buy the book. You will not be disapointed.

Book Description
Most chess puzzle books put you in an artificial situation: you are told a combination exists, what the theme is, and what you are required to achieve. This one is different. In a real game situation, a player may sometimes need to find a combination. On the other hand he may need to reject a tactical idea and simply find a good positional move. His task is to find the right move, whatever it may be. The puzzles in this book put you precisely in that situation. John Nunn, a top-class grandmaster and one of the world's best chess solvers, has selected 250 positions to test your skills to the full. In each case you are challenged to find the best move. Spectacular ideas abound in these positions, but it is for you to decide whether to go for them, or whether you would be falling into a trap. If you need them, there are hints to help you out. The book ends with a series of tests to measure your skills against those of other players.
Customer Reviews:
Excellent, but be aware that this is an advanced puzzle book.......2006-07-29
Most of the puzzles in this book are for advanced players. For instance if you get 50 % score from Nunn's test, your calculated rating is 2144. So this is a very tough chess puzzle book, players over rating 2000 will benefit most from this book. If you are below this level (1700-2000 in rating), try Emms "The Ultimate Chess Puzzle Book" instead. The layout and size of this book could be better, with larger diagrams etc. as in Emms book. Therefore I give it only 4 stars.
My advice about chess books on tactical improvement depending on the rating:
900-1100 : Chess Tactics for Student
1300-1600: Winning Chess Exercises for Kids
1700-2000: The Ultimate Chess Puzzle Book
2000-> : John Nunn's Chess Puzzle Book.
Superb exercises for the advanced player.......2005-08-09
This puzzle book consists of 250 chess positions and their solutions. There is a section of hints, separated physically from the puzzles themselves, which is a good thing. In the first third of the book, in the two main puzzle sections, Nunn offers a few words to set up the problem. I generally do not like this (as it does not reflect a realistic game situation), but the words do not really give anything away. A brief section is devoted to finding "The Wrong Move" - usually a plausible or natural idea that can be abruptly refuted. An interesting chapter has to do with the standard of chess quality from a previous age, with puzzle positions drawn from an illustrative tournament from 1911. Finally, there is a series of tests in which only positions are given, and the reader's task is to find the best move. As usual, the grading is correlated with Elo ratings.
This set of puzzles is substantially different from all the others currently available. While many of the solutions do consist of straightforward tactics leading to a winning material advantage; still others feature a winning positional idea, or a surprising drawing resource. The level of difficulty is quite high, perhaps a notch or two above Emms "Ultimate Chess Puzzle Book," and Alburt's "Chess Training Pocket Book". The present book might be better suited to Class A, Experts and above. Indeed, according the the chart at the end of the test slutions, a score of only 30 out of 120 corresponds to an Elo rating of about 1900.
The puzzles are unlikely to be found in earlier books. The solutions are checked against a computer, along with the author's world class chess judgment. A lot of alternate solutions are given, as well as explanations for rejected lines. Nunn offers a lot of instructive of insights and helpful advice. Both the diagrams and text are clear and pleasantly laid out.
An Excellent, Very Practical Chess Book.......2004-09-27
This is one of my favorite chess books. The heart of this book is a series of exercises. I find that puzzle books are the most effective, practical, way to improve playing strength. One of the great advantages of this book is that the author does not tell you if the problems are tactical, positional, or strategic. This is of course the most practical approach, as at the board no one is there to tell you which it is.
I really enjoyed this book, and I can recommend it fully. It will help you improve your play.
Emms book and this are both good.......2002-08-04
Unlike John Emms' "The Ultimate Chess Puzzle Book," which I strongly recommend for most anybody, this is not meant to be a tactics book. A previous reviewer apparently missed the point of this book, simply comparing the number of puzzles to judge the content in those 2 books. Nunn's book deliberately keeps the reader from expecting what is coming, thereby simulating the true game environment. This approach wouldn't necessarily get your pure tactical skills up, but if you look at the benefit you will gain in your overall play, this book is definitely worth its price.
One more note...there was a comment that "Not to mention Emms is a bettr player than Nunn ever was or will be" in a previous review, but that is simply not true. John Nunn hovered around #10-15 in the world during mid-80's, while John Emms has yet to break into top 100.
A different type of puzzle book........2002-06-22
I am a typical class C player trying to get better and I have purchased Nunn's Chess Puzzle Book and think that it is better than most chess puzzle books. Most books have sections such as "Mate - in - three" or "Queen Sacrifices" or "Pins and Skewrers". These groupings however obviously tell you what to look for and in a real chess game no one is sitting at your side and saying "there is a real nice knight fork somewhere on the board so find it"! Nunn's book also has a majority of all new problems so you won't be seeing that Reti - Tartakower queen sac and mate in three here. The only drawback is the cost. Consider also the "Chess Training Pocket Book" by Lev Alburt which does have well known problems (including the Reti - Tartakower one!) but has the advantage of throwing in postitions where there is no tactical solution but rather the position represents an important positional or endgame theme.

Customer Reviews:
3 Stars Is Generous.......2007-03-08
Unless, you have time to set up a board and mimic the countless moves, or you have an out standing memory, this book is hard to follw. The parts that I am able to read is pretty good good ideas, but mostly massive chess notation. It says 900 diagrams but with each one is 50 moves to get to the postion and 50 after the picture to get the logic of the position. I guess if you are a master it would make sense. Defininatly not for beginers or even intermediate players I would say.
Good value. Decent book. Reprinted as "Chess" in hardcover........2003-10-04
The 1st edition has been reprinted in hardcover and is now called "Chess" by Graham Burgess. As chess instruction books go, this is average at best, but it is a good value for the money. However, it is not so good for beginners.
The best thing about the book are the descriptions of plans for various openings, and typical traps. So this is a very good book for trying new openings.
The 2nd edition has more current info on computers, but that section is really unnecessary anyway.
The rest of the book has decent material, enough to last you quite awhile, but nothing that will give you any epiphanies.
By the way, the companion (still out-of-print as of October 2003) games collection, Mammoth Book of the World's Greatest Chess Games, is a truly excellent book for intermediate players.
wide selection of topics, a real bargain!.......2003-09-28
I think Mr Burgess has done a great job by doing this book a very readable and it's a small inexpensive paperback, so I like to have it when travelling. It's suitable, in my opinion, for 'intermediate' beginners, having nice exercises: mates in two, combinations etc.(although I think they are a little bit too difficult in comparison to mate exercises. but they are taken from real matches, and could anybody say finding combinations with no refute is easy?!). this books contains a lot of opening info with traps and strategic play examples. Besides there is coverage of chess-related topics which you could probably not find in most of books.
Get the book, you'll love it.
The price is right!.......2003-07-12
For the price this is an excellent introduction to Chess. Its not for absolute beginners, you should have read at least one other book on beginners Chess (Chess for Dummies is a good one) but its not for "intermediate" players or advanced players only either. If you know enough of the basics (basic endgames, algebraic notation, etc), you will get a lot out of this book. I love the puzzles, they really make you think and it feels great to get a particularly hard one right. This book will make you a better chess player, if your just starting out (with the caveat above) or have been playing awhile. I would recommend this book for beginners and intermediate players. Advanced players might like this in their library, if only to loan out to friends that are trying to get up to speed. Buy it, at this price you won't be disappointed!
Chessboard or smorgasbord?.......2003-06-15
This is sort of a buffet of a chess book. There's a little of everything, and not a lot of depth in anything, but what's there is fun, though in some spots Burgess seems to be writing for everybody: there are arcane references to past games, players and techniques; there are "tests" of considerable difficulty and some of incredible ease. There's a section on how to play chess, so apparently he wants notices to pick up this book too. There are sections that address simple questions like "If I just started playing, is there any chance I can ever become a master?" which again leads one to believe the book is aimed at novices. But then a few pages later there will be position analyses with many variations and sub-variations that make my head spin (and I am an Expert-level player) plus some solutions I flat-out do not get. I wonder who the intended audience is for this book.
Most puzzling, though, is the section on computer chess. I guess this made sense when he wrote it back in 1996-97...but now the chapters read as a relic, albeit an often amusing one. He talks about the latest in computers and computer chess: 486s and Pentium IIs, and Fritz 3 and 4! (We're up to Fritz 8 now, if you're counting.) He shows strategies to defeat computers that any recent program will mow down. He gives URLs to chess sites and publishers, most of which no longer work. He gives Telnet addresses! It's kind of like using a telephone directory from 1966 to find somebody today.
But despite all the apparent griping, the book is useful, but more as a quick reference, or entertaining page-turner than as a serious study. If you really want to improve your game and you're an intermediate-level player, I recommend, for starters, Silman's "How To Reassess Your Chess," and "The Amateur's Mind," Nimzovichs "My System" and Pachman's "Modern Chess Strategy." You will have a strong foundation. (Heck, if I reread them, I'd have a stronger foundation.) This book also had some glaring typos. Some were just grammatical ("Fischer took on the hole Russian chess team" or something like that) but there are at least two moves in games I've caught that are wrong, ie, impossible from the diagrammed position. Both times I went to a computer database to find the game and see the correct move.
Still, I find most chess books to be fun at the very least, so I gave it four stars. (I'll rarely give less than that to any chess book so long as it wasn't written by Eric Schiller.) If you can get this title for cheap, it is a reasonably good book, but more as a supplement. It's not comprehensive, it's not up-to-date and it certainly won't teach a beginner very much. Seirawan's series on strategy, tactics, brilliancies, etc., from Microsoft Press is much better at that.

Customer Reviews:
The copy I saw was a mis-printing.......2007-06-08
I looked at this book (2nd edition) specifically for a game where Nigel Short marches his king across the board to defeat Jan Timman. I got interested in this because chess teacher Fred Wilson mentioned it in his "Four Fighting Kings" tape (available from fredwilsonchess.com).
It was a real disappointment to see that the book I examined was apparently the result of a printing that went from pp. 481 to 486, then went back to 482 and was missing the first 8 moves of the game!
So I ordered a copy of the first edition.
Games Chosen By Committee.......2007-03-12
"I have played against you both...in my opinion Morphy was the King of all chess players who ever lived and Anderssen, in his prime, was next to him. As for you and the rest of us - oh, we play chess."
--Paulsen to Steinitz, Vienna, 1873
**********
Anderssen has two games in this book. Morphy has none. Morphy beat Anderssen twelve times, lost to him three times, and drew against him twice.
In addition to a faulty selection of games, this book has poor quality binding and paper.
I blame a strange committee process rather than national bias for the authors' omission. The book even acknowledges that Anderssen was bested by "the brilliant young American, Paul Morphy." The trouble is, Morphy's greatest achievements have become less famous than his spectacular quick wins against lesser opponents. A book like this, where the authors chose games for their renown as well as for their quality, has no way of dealing with a player whose great games are not famous and whose famous games are not great. The result is a one-hundred-twelve-game collection that leaves out one of the greatest chess players who ever lived. To set the record straight, I recommend PAUL MORPHY: A MODERN PERSPECTIVE by Valeri Beim.
The Mammoth book has some good commentary on a lot of fantastic games, but the claim made in its title is unfounded and the binding and pages fall apart quickly. Aside from the absence of Morphy, there are too many contemporary games for a book purporting to be a historical overview.
I deduct one star for poor material quality and one for a game selection that overemphasizes the last twenty years while ignoring the player who stood out above his contemporaries more than any other player in the history of chess.
I have noticed reviews by a couple of Morphy bashers. They will probably never change their tune, but anyone who wants to have an informed opinion really ought to read Beim's book on Morphy or at least see the section on Morphy in Kasparov's MY GREAT PREDECESSORS. Why people still judge Morphy based on his wins against weak players is beyond me. Nobody judges Kasparov by his exhibition game against Sting.
Fantastic game collection.......2007-02-28
The authors have put together an excellent collection of great games from the last 175 years of chess history. The book is aimed at the intermediate and advanced player. It starts with a brief introduction to the players and the game for each game and then proceeds to explain and analyze what is happening in the game. It contains the right amount of explanation and analysis to appeal to a wide variety of players and has plenty of diagrams so that the stronger player will not need to have a board and set to follow the action. For the less experienced player, the authors place a aynopsis of the lessons to be learned at the end of the game.
Although the description of the book say 512 pages, it is actually 624 pages. The amount of material, quality of annotation and reasonable price make this a very worthwhile book to own.
Analyzed Games Old and New "want to improve your chess will be good for you!".......2006-11-20
This book contains selected games. Both of the masters of new, old all great which will help your ability to checkmate! One Hundred and Twelve games analyzed games study, alone or with your best buddy. The analysis though not real deep makes is light enough for your mind to keep. Want deeper analysis using games get books by Nunn (Understanding Chess) or by Snyder ("Unbeatable Chess Lessons for Juniors"). They are move by move both fun and the the analysis more tighter. These days when it comes to books with games and good analysis you have many to choose so start reading them all it's no time to snooze.
Now down to real business! "The Mammoth Book" contains a wide variety of games over a long time span by many strong players. The analysis ranging from light to moderate in depth is for an intermediate level to stronger player level. This is not a down to basics level book. I was disapointed only in that the book was made out of really cheap paper and is hard to keep open when using (why four instead of five stars). True, I prefer the "every move commented on approach" used by Chernev, Nunn and Snyder, but "the Mammoth book" is still excellent.
I love the first edition.......2006-09-26
This review pertains specifically to the first edition. I do not have the second edition and probably will not buy it because I will probably never finish learning everything that I can from the first! I really like the book and have learned much so far. The selection of games is very good and that analysis is good. Based upon some of the other reviews here, it may not be perfect analysis, but it is very good. At first I thought that the biographies were unnecessary because anyone who could use this book would know about the players, but then I learned quite a bit there too. A very good book and at a very reasonable price.

Moderately useful book used in my MBA course!.......2007-01-16
Moderately useful book used in my MBA course!
Of Limited Use to Defense Industry.......2006-09-12
While this book contains a great deal of useful information on team dynamics and tools, it does not cover the Integrated Process and Product Development (IPPD) framwork which is the basis of co-located Integrated Product Teams (IPTs). Due to this omission, its applicability to the defense industry is very limited.
Dog-earred, highlighted, and still going strong!.......2006-08-27
Like all good improvement tools, this guide for teams has evolved over the years. I began with the original, moved to Edition Two and now have Edition Three. Along with THE LEADER'S HANDBOOK, the TEAM HANDBOOK is probably the most useful and used book I own. Whether you are leading a project team, facilitating your own workgroup, or just want to be a better team member yourself, THIS is the tool you need. Every chapter is jammed pack with helpful tips, traps to avoid, notes and templates to help you be successful. Invest in this book, invest in YOURSELF!
