IronFort's thoughts:
Personally I don't see why people rave about this book, may be it is me or this version. It makes little sence to me, it is full of useless aferisms; I can do these to "There are three types of Go pieces: the ones in the pot, the ones in your hand and the ones on the board. Be careful not to confuse them."
