Book excerpt: From the Nobel Prize-winning author and acclaimed writer of Thousand Cranes comes the luminous chronicle of a match of the Japanese game Go played between a master and a younger, more modern challenger that serves as a suspenseful elegy for an entire society. Go is a game of strategy in which two players attempt to surround each other’s black or white stones. Simple in its fundamentals, infinitely complex in its execution, Go is an essential expression of the Japanese spirit. And in his fictional chronicle of a match played between a revered and heretofore invincible Master and a younger, more modern challenger, Yasunari Kawabata captured the moment in which the immutable traditions of imperial Japan met the onslaught of the twentieth century. The competition between the Master of Go and his opponent, Otaké, is waged over several months and layered in ceremony. But beneath the game’s decorum lie tensions that consume not only the players themselves but their families and retainers—tensions that turn this particular contest into a duel that can only end in death. Luminous in its detail, both suspenseful and serene, The Master of Go is written with the poetic economy and psychological acumen that brought Kawabata the Nobel Prize for Literature. Translated from the Japanese by Edward G. Seidensticker

Download or read book Go! More Than a Game written by Peter Shotwell and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-11 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master the fascinating game of Go with this expert guidebook. Go is a two-player board game that first originated in ancient China but is also very popular in Japan and Korea. There is significant strategy and philosophy involved in the game, and the number of possible games is vast--even when compared to chess. Go has enthralled hundreds of millions of people in Asia, where it is an integral part of the culture. In the West, many have learned of its pleasures, especially after the game appeared in a number of hit movies, TV series, and books, and was included on major Internet game sites. By eliciting the highest powers of rational thought, the game draws players, not just for the thrills of competition, but because they feel it enhances their mental, artistic, and even spiritual lives. Go! More Than a Game is the guidebook that uses the most modern methods of teaching to learn Go, so that, in a few minutes, anyone can understand the two basic rules that generate the game. The object of Go is surrounding territory, but the problem is that while you are doing this, the opponent may be surrounding you! In a series of exciting teaching games, you will watch as Go's beautiful complexities begin to unfold in intertwining patterns of black and white stones. These games progress from small 9x9 boards to 13x13 and then to the traditional 19x19 size. Go! More Than a Game has been completely revised by the author based on new data about the history of early Go and the Confucians who wrote about it. This popular book includes updated information such as the impact of computer versions on the game, the mysterious new developments of Go combinatorics, advances in Combinatorial Game Theory and a look at the current international professional playing scene.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is famous for ladder problems and their solutions one of which is illustrated on the cover. Here the author creates fantastic designs in the form of go problems and their solutions. An example of one of them is on the cover. There are many more inside. He created so many of these problems, puzzles and designs that with every reprinting of this book he would take out the old ones and put in new ones instead. This possibly creates a problem as we cannot be sure which ones to include. Nakayama Noriyuki ( ) was a professional 6 dan go player. He was born September 3, 1932. He lived in Kamogawa City in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. He was author, reporter and go writer. He wrote over 30 go books. He is best known for this book which has gone through four printings already in English, German and Japanese. He also ghost wrote books for top professionals."

Book excerpt: The Sanren-Sei, which consists of three stones played in a row on the star-points on one side, is the most powerful and dramatic of modern fuseki patterns, yet it is the easiest to master. He has enjoyed consistent popularity ever since it was invented because of its emphasis on developing a bold, attacking style. In this lucid explanation, Takagawa Shukaku helps you grasp its key concepts and shows you how to use it to secure center influence and build large moyos. He gives a comprehensive coverage of Sanren-Sei basics, then shows it in action in top-level professional play. Sanren-sai strategy is easy both to understand and to apply. The main themes of this opening are clear and compelling, and there are relatively few josekis to memorize, yet by the time you finish this book you will understand why it has been the favorite fuseki of so many great players.

Book excerpt: Honinbo Shuei (1852 1907) is the go player that masters of the calibre even of Go Seigen and Takagawa Kaku professed to admire the most. Many consider him the Meijin of Meijins, and in his late years no-one could play without a handicap against him. Yet he achieved his dominance only in middle age, having several times disappeared from the mainstream go world for months on end. He lived at a time of enormous upheaval and uncertainty in the Japanese go world, seeing tragedy strike his father, his brother and his mentor. His own life was marred by a debilitating disease. But he compounded his problems by choosing to struggle - with some success - to uphold the Honinbo name and the game's traditions in the brave new world represented by the rival Hoensha organisation. This book is a ground-breaking, detailed biography of Shuei set within the background of the tumultuous times he lived through. It is sympathetic but candid.
