Indeed is very very important that the book of each program works perfectly with
the style of play of each program, and the programmer of the Book, first need to
know, which are the positions that the program can play better and better.   I
do not know, why many people do not understand this.

If a top program, plays with a bad book, it will have not very good results. The
results should be very different, or very low in comparission with a good book.

There are a lot of opening books, but there are only a few that are really
great.  A good opening book is one of the most important things, that a good
program need.
