But in our opinion this strict definition don't reveal all the richness of this concept. Also we propose you the following link and the introduction comment of this page : Our traditional way of thinking is aimed at decision-making on the grounds of scarce and incomplete data. Now every day we are swamped with data. This asks for a different way of thinking. Our text-led culture is obsolete. We are flooded with visual information from television and the Internet. Important issues are increasingly decided upon by our response to imagery. In order to understand visual thinking we need to look at man's original natural environment. This is the origin of our modern reality and it is where the way in which we experience information is rooted [1, 2]. Our senses have developed and are finetuned to our natural surroundings. In our original natural environment there was no text and media did not exist. The natural habitat had a certain directness. Every symbol was an object. We have improved on reality by draping a layer of language and technology over our original environment. We have structured our societywith linguistic institutions like government, science and industry. But if we listen to Mozart today, we do so by using our hearing that was originally developed to alert us to danger and opportunities in the natural environment.

Main Line: In a biginning, the principal variation used or/and analysed (Open Chess Theory). Line: A straight path on the chessboard joining two edges. This way there is 46 lines on the chessboard: 8 files, 8 ranks and 30 diagonals (NCT II - "Chessboard geometry"). A Free Line is a straight line of the chessboard (file, rank or diagonal) answering to the following simple condition: at least five consecutive squares of this line do not contain any pawn of both sides. This new concept is among main ideas that we will develop in the NCT (New Chess Theory). A Totally Free Line is a straight line of the chessboard (file, rank or diagonal) containing any pawn of both sides (New Chess Theory). An Obstructed Line is a line where pawns of one or both camps block the freedom of movement of figures (Chess Terminology). By Line we mean a file, a rank or a diagonal of the chessboard. There is 46 lines on the chessboard. Let us consider such a line L. In a given position: The line L is said a Critical Line or a Force Line if are realized the following conditions: (New Chess Theory - NCT IX - "Critical lines & points"). Line of Play: All line (sequence of moves) playable (Chess Terminology). In specific positions it occurs sometimes that there is an Only Line Playable; we give a typical example of such a circumstance in the game:

A Losing Tactic is a bad move sequence involving ipso facto the loss of the game (Chess Terminology). A Losing Strategy is a false strategy, without plan or revealing an erroneous plan; and this bad comprehension of the position leads to fatal errors having for consequence, in all logic, the probable loss of the game (Chess Terminology).
