University Press returns with another short and captivating book – a brief history of chess.
Chess is a relatively simple game to learn, but it can take a lifetime to master. Played with just 32 pieces on a simple chequered board of 64 squares, there are more possible chess game variations than the estimated one hundred thousand quadrillion vigintillion atoms in the known universe.
A test of intelligence, strategy, and forward planning, the game of chess dates back at least 1,500 years. As the game spread out from India along ancient trade routes and by conquering armies, it steadily evolved, ignited philosophical debates, sparked fierce rivalries, drove some to insanity, stirred political intrigue, created international heroes, and – today – shapes the fields of mathematics, computer science, psychology, and artificial intelligence.
This short book peels back the veil and provides a brief glimpse into the heart-warming, gut-wrenching, awe-inspiring history of chess – a 1,500-year history that you can read in about an hour.
