Review # 1 was written on 2021-06-26 00:00:00 Dale Hoover Probably more of a three-star anthology, but had to dock a star for this little postmodern nugget: "The game, then, played between two players is not simply a series of the most correct moves, but a narrative of conflict seeking to debunk the personal novella of the chess player to an anecdotal myth and raise the tale of one author to the most compelling story that captures not only one's opponent, but the audience, the community, and the social group that makes the performance possible." Yikes.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-05-27 00:00:00 Chris Paxton Serres expertly dismantles the hegemony of vision in western sciences. One should always remember the victory of Hermès - infiltrating messenger - over Argus Panoptes!
