Description

Kasparov versus Deep Blue examines the historic chess matches between world champion Garry Kasparov and IBM’s Deep Blue, a turning point in the relationship between humans and machines. Monty Newborn provides a clear account of how computer chess evolved, the technology behind Deep Blue, and the intense psychological and strategic battles that unfolded during the matches. The book places these games in the broader context of artificial intelligence research and competitive chess history.

Blending technical explanation with narrative tension, Kasparov versus Deep Blue looks at what it meant for a computer to challenge and defeat the best human player in the world. It raises thoughtful questions about intelligence, creativity, and the future of human competition with machines, making it engaging for chess players, tech enthusiasts, and readers curious about the early milestones of AI.
