Another great Go installment! Writing is crisp, witty, and humorous; examples are pertinent and extremely helpful. The step-by-step format of the sample games are a real lifesaver. Again, if you play Go, you need to read this series. I've read it through once, but I keep coming back to it for help with specific problems. Really a fantastic resource.
