Inter alia author of the benchmark -

'Ajedrez a la ciega'

'Todo el mundo sabe que hay hitos bibliográficos que marcan toda una época. Y es que desde la publicación de cada uno de ellos las cosas ya nunca más son iguales.

El libro que el lector tiene entre sus manos puede ser considerado como una de las aportaciones bibliográficas más importantes que se han hecho en los últimos años, y se gana así, por méritos propios, un lugar destacadísimo en la vasta obra editorial ajedrecística de todos los tiempos. No sólo se trata de la contrastada experiencia de su autor, Benito López Esnaola, el insigne maestro de tantas generaciones de jóvenes ajedrecistas, ajedrecista él, publicista y autor de una amplia obra que comprende todos los temas del ajedrez, desde las aperturas a los finales pasando por biografías y un sinfín de otros temas, sino que es la forma de tratar el campo particular del que el libro se ocupa, el "ajedrez a la ciega" ("Bindfold Chess" es tal vez una definición más precisa aunque en otra lengua), con una profusión de datos, biografías, records, partidas, informes médicos y científicos, curiosidades, etc., lo que hace de esta obra algo único e imprescindible no ya para el ajedrecista de toda condición y categoría, sino incluso para cualquier bibliómano, historiador, médico o psicólogo.

Carlos Almarza Mato, Prologo'
