Invading is an important technique that every go player should have in his arsenal, and here is a book that will raise your invading ability to expert strength. The material is presented in a problem format. Each problem is part of a series of problems in which various lines are explored. Short sequences of moves allow the reader to concentrate on one particular aspect of a problem without becoming confused through the analysis of long and complicated variations. This book is divided into three parts. Part One systematically deals with the standard invasions on the side of the board, Part Two with invading the corners and attacking corner enclosures, and Part Three with erasing large territorial frameworks. This is a book for players of all strengths. If you are a weak kyu-player, it is guaranteed to increase your invading ability by as much as six stones. If you are already a strong dan player, it will fill in the gaps that may exist in your invasion technique. For sure, this is a book that no serious go player can do without.
