Lessons in the fundamentals of Go
Kageyama Toshiro 7-dan

Many go books promise to explain the fundamentals; here is one that
really keeps its promise. Kageyama's subjects are connectivity, 
good and bad shape, the way stones should 'move', the difference
between territory and spheres of influence, how to use thickness and
walls, how to train yourself to read, where to start looking in a
life-and-death problem - matters so fundamental that other writers 
miss them completely. He also points out the right way to study -
how to study joseki for example. 'What changed me from an amateur 
into a professional was getting a really firm grip on the fundamentals',
writes Kageyama. The essence of seven years of amateur and twenty-two
years of professional playing experience are distilled into these 
pages, and they are filled with advice that all goplayers will find
practical.

This book is not only one of the best gobooks from the go technical
point of view, it is also one of the best written books in an excelent
translation by James Davies. Original version published by Ishi Press.
Lessons in the fundamentals is one of the best selling books of the
years 1996-1999
