This book is written for players who have acquired an understanding of therules of go and some of its most elementary tactics and strategies by having readan introductory book and having played a few games. We have assumed that thereader understands the terms ‘sente’ and ‘gote’, that he knows what a ko is, isable to determine neutral points, and can count the score. Its aim is to give thenovice an introduction to each phase of the game and to dispel a number of strategicand tactical misconceptions that often plague beginners and inhibit theirprogress.Beginners usually overemphasize defense, not realizing that the best way todefend is to attack. By attacking your opponent’s stones, you can often defendyour weak positions in the process. Understanding this concept from the very beginningof one’s go career will clear the way for quick progress up through thekyu ranks. In this context, Chapters Two and Four are the most important andshould be of value, especially to players who have been struggling for years toreach expert or dan level.
