When we play the ancient and noble game of chess, we grapple with ideas abouthonesty, deceitfulness, bravery, fear, aggression, beauty, and creativity, which echo (or allow usto depart from) the attitudes we take in our daily lives. Chess is an activity in which we deployalmost all our available cognitive resources; therefore, it makes an ideal laboratory forinvestigation into the workings of the mind. Indeed, research into artificial intelligence (AI) hasused chess as a model for intelligent behavior since the 1950s. In ChessMetaphors, Diego Rasskin-Gutman explores fundamental questions about memory, thought,emotion, consciousness, and other cognitive processes through the game of chess, using the moves ofthirty-two pieces over sixty-four squares to map the structural and functional organization of thebrain. Rasskin-Gutman focuses on the cognitive task of problem solving, exploring it from theperspectives of both biology and AI. Examining AI researchers' efforts to program a computer thatcould beat a flesh-and-blood grandmaster (and win a world chess championship), he finds that theresults fall short when compared to the truly creative nature of the human mind.
