Junior 10– 2006 world computer champion...
 Junior
10 is the new 2006 Computer Chess World Champion. The program, written
by the Israeli programmers Amir Ban and Shy Bushinsky, narrowly defeated
its main rival, the many times world champion program Shredder, at the
Computer Chess World Championship which was held during the Chess Olympiad
in Turin, Italy. Junior impressed experts with its extraordinary dynamic
play, and remained undefeated in this event. Junior 10 has its own special
search techniques and evaluation functions, which makes it different to
any other chess program.
In the latest version we see the rigorous continuation of a development
that started with Junior 7 and has led to a unique and creative playing
style. It started with the famous bishop sacrifice on h2 in a match against
Garry Kasparov and now has been honed to perfection in Version 10. In
spite of their success in computer chess tournaments the programmers of
Junior are not primarily concerned with beating other chess programs.
Instead they have developed Junior into an instrument that enables human
beings to gain new insights and understanding in the game of chess. A
good example is the very pronounced understanding of compensation, which
allows its users to explore new possibilities of sacrifice attacks and
sharp dynamic play.

You also get the latest openings book which is continually enhanced and
improved by GM Boris Alterman, a member of the Junior team.
