    A is the Go board game, depicted in B - a Japanese artwork showing Chinese General Guan Yu being treated by his physician for an injured arm. Apparently, there was no anesthetic being used and the general played Go to keep his mind off the pain. C is Nobel Prize winner, John Nash, Jr. who was the subject of the award-winning book and movie. "A Beautiful Mind". The movie uses Go to show some of Nash's work in game theory.
