WARRIORS OF
THE MIND
A Quest for the Supreme Genius of the Chess Board
BY
RAYMOND KEENE
& NATHAN DIVINSKY
Would Garry Kasparov have beaten Bobby Fischer? Was Capablanca stronger than Morphy? Many chess authors have speculated about such questions, but this book, based on a sophisticated computer analysis undertaken at the University of British Columbia, provides the definitive answer.
Although now twenty years on this book does not considor the modern day masters, going only as far as Nigel Short. The authors took 64 Grand Masters and attempted to analyse their various strengths.
A fascinating read for chess lovers or mathematicians alike, that will set up even more arguments over who was the greatest "WARRIOR OF THE MIND"
