Go books on the internet

Post by Hanmanchu »

Hi everyone,

I sometimes search the internet for go books, most of the time I look for classics.

Whenever I look on amazon there is really not so much...one time, however, I found "Invasions et reductions" by Lee Changho on the french amazon page and bought it.

Well, a few days ago I found "Le go cosmique" by Takemiya on a site called aobo-shop.com.

Sadly, the books "A compendium of trick plays" and "3-3 point. modern opening strategy", in which I am very interested, were out of stock.

I guess, if you consider english, french and german books alltogether, you have a relatively large choice of go books to read. If only I could read korean or japanese...I once was given a korean go book, I still only look at the pictures... it is a translation of the japanese book "tsugi no itte" by Cho Chikun, probably a good read!

Something I wanted to share.

Comparing to the number of English go books, the number of German go books is quite small, and the number of German books that have no English counterpart is even much smaller. And I think that applies for French go books as well.
