[[Dap Hartmann]] in 1987 on ''[[Peter van Diepen#SchakenvoorComputers|Schaken voor Computers]]'' <ref>[[Dap Hartmann]] ('''1987'''). [[Peter van Diepen]] and [[Jaap van den Herik]]: ''Schaken voor Computers''. (Review), [[ICGA Journal#10_3|ICCA Journal, Vol. 10, No. 3]]</ref>:
The 275-page book contains 97 diagrams, 49 figures, 43 complete games, and 32 photos. It is, in every aspect, the best book on computer chess so far. Not only does it contain a good course in programming a computer to play chess, it is also very valuable as a reference guide for most of the algorithms used. Advanced readers will be delighted to find clear description of [[Transposition Table|transposition tables]] and [[Endgame Tablebases|database]] construction.
Both Van Diepen and [[Jaap van den Herik|Van den Herik]] are editor-in chief of a major journal, and this is reflected in a crisp style and clear explanation. If ever a book required translation, it is this. In the meantime, those who have command of the Dutch language are singularly privileged.
