Modern Backgammon by Bill Robertie, 880604 /
Modern Backgammon develops the theme of how our understanding of backgammon has been changed by the advent of the neural net programs. Robertie develops four thematic concepts: efficiency, connectivity, non-commitment and robustness. Each concept has its own chapter and illustrative examples. There is an additional chapter of very difficult problems and finally an annotated 25-pt match between Nack Ballard and Jerry Grandell to see the concepts applied in a real-life situation. Robertie sprinkles his new book with some of the best advice and aphorisms that he and Kent Goulding published in their now defunct magazine Inside Backgammon. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about developing their game.
