I have some very basic notes at http://www.oellermann.com/cftchess/notes/ .
Although nothing more advanced than alpha-beta is covered, hopefully the
concepts are fairly clear and will enable understanding of some of the more
tricky stuff which is available around the Net. The notes were written to assist
entrants in a checkers-programming contest last year, and have been updated for
chess.

Cheers
Adam
