Rivals meets Made in Chelsea in this scandalous small-town YA romance

Unbridled

'Mezrich's books are the sort of engrossing reads you pick up in the airport then find the blockbuster film on the plane' - Evening Standard In September 2022, the chess world watched in disbelief as Magnus Carlsen, widely considered the greatest player in history, faced an unthinkable defeat against the nineteen-year-old American upstart, Hans Niemann. When Carlsen withdrew from the prestigious Sinquefield Cup and subtly accused Niemann of cheating, shockwaves hit the chess community, igniting the biggest scandal in the sport's history. Checkmate dives deep into this modern-day drama, tracing the parallel rises of Carlsen, the stoic virtuoso, and Niemann, the fiery disruptor. Niemann denied the accusations, even as past online cheating incidents surfaced, while powerful entities like Chess.com, a billion-dollar online arena, became entangled in the escalating controversy. As the scandal went viral, it became clear that more was at stake than a single game. Checkmate is a story of ambition, genius and greed set against the backdrop of a once-niche game exploding into a global, multi-billion-dollar phenomenon. It's a compelling exploration of a world where tradition collides with innovation, and a new generation, forged in the digital age, threatens to upend everything.

This book is an ambitious research work that incorporates recent findings on communication and knowledge in organizations and includes contributions from global researchers. It brings together researchers from various countries who are active in this field and describes research on communication and knowledge that considers the development of ICT under the positivist paradigm (Part I) as well as research on communication and knowledge that focuses on language under the interpretivist paradigm (Part II). By approaching research on communication and knowledge in organizations using these two paradigms, this book presents a clear and energetic overview of the characteristics of both.

This book brings together selected papers presented at the International Scientific Conference “Digital Transformation in Industry: Trends, Management, Strategies” (DTI), held in Ekaterinburg, Russia, on November 19–21, 2025, as part of the biennial DTI framework.
