I have no idea which book is the best because I do not know about serious test
of nimzo's book against other books.

It is possible to do a tournament between engines when
every engine from group A use Nimzo's book and every engine from group B use
Fritz's book.

After it do the same tournament when every engine from group A use Fritz's book
and every engine from group B use Nimzo's book.

If nimzo's book has a total score of more than 50% in both tournaments it
suggests that Nimzo's book is better than Fritz's book.

I have no information about the question which book is better except some
information that suggest that Fritz6's book is better than Junior6's book based
on chessfun's tournament(the difference is small and it may be a statistical
error).
