The book deals with a reliable and interesting system (1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 e6 3 Nf3 b6 4 a3) which has been played by most of the world’s elite, starting with ex-world champion Tigran Petrosian. It is not a repertoire book though. Beliavsky & Mikhalchishin present an objective work which discusses the possibilities of both sides.
White's main strategic goal in this system is to build a perfect pawn centre and then organise a kingside attack. Such an approach is much more natural than the modern fianchetto systems against the Queen’s Indian Defence. Database statistics seem to confirm that, as White is scoring better with 4.a3 than with 4.g3.
The authors’ own practical experience shows that they feel comfortably in the Petrosian system with any colour. They are especially effective with White and have not allowed a single loss in 27 years.
The structure of this book is similar to other recent Chess Stars publications. Every part starts with a “Main Ideas” section that explains the major plans and typical positions which are then analysed in the “Move by Move” chapters. The book will be interesting to a wide range of players who enter QID positions as White or Black.
The book is a nice mix of technical analysis and verbal explanations making it accessable to

: Abstract
Operating System Concepts, now in its ninth edition, continues to provide a solid theoretical foundation for understanding operating systems. The ninth edition has been thoroughly updated to include contemporary examples of how operating systems function. The text includes content to bridge the gap between concepts and actual implementations. End-of-chapter problems, exercises, review questions, and programming exercises help to further reinforce important concepts. A new Virtual Machine provides interactive exercises to help engage students with the material..This book is an excellent general survey of operating systems concepts. At 941 pages, it packs a lot into those pages apart from a good historical survey of most important issues over 64 years of operating system conceptual history since general purpose ommercial computers emerged from the shadows of world war two, it could be criticised as only dealing in depth with Linux and Windows. Older important sophisticated operating systems such as VMS are mentioned with in almost no depth.
