                                                                        1998 is
in some sense a breakthrough year for "computer aided" chess: Several programs
have k-best modes now, the multi-engine concept is spread, and (top of the pop)
ChessBase 7.0 even allows to run several engines simultaneously in k-best modes.
"Chess analyzing" can be done much more effective with these tools.

The book contains many anecdotes and personal stories. I am not a
native English speaker and so would not be able to find appropriate
words which express exactly what I mean. Also good translation of the
"word games" would be impossible for me. Maybe someone else is
interested in translating ...  (Minze Bij de Weg will translate
several parts of the book to Dutch and publish them in "Computer-
Schaak".)
