All About Thickness : Understanding Moyo and Influence
- Used Book in Good Condition
All About Thickness Understanding Moyo and Influence A completely new kind of go book. Two-color printing makes the advanced concepts of thickness and influence graphically clear â€“ and instantly understandable. Most go books are top heavy with text and endless exploratory diagrams. Ishida's approach in this book is the opposite â€“ large diagrams, simple explanations, a minimum of mind-numbing text â€“ yet this is the most successful attempt in the go literature to convey to go players at all levels the secrets of building thickness and making effective use of influence. How do you build influence? In what areas of the board should you aim to control? In what directions to the stones exert their force? How close should you approach a strung enemy position? How many points can you expect to convert a thick position into? The answers to these questions and many other questions will be apparent at a glance when you read this book. All about thickness, the first book of its kind, was a best seller in Japan. Go players around the world should find th English version as Japanese go fans.
