I am learning the game, and the book is clear and has plenty of examples, recommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm looking for a book to introduce newcomers to the game
*by R***T on 2 June 2014*

This is currently at an acceptable price, and it'll just about do. It's a book that was written a long time ago, there is a list of addresses of national and USAian Go club addresses, which are presumably mostly out of date. The introduction is intensely USAian oriented, Britain and Europe have their own histories, even in Go, and an introduction that only mentions the introduction of the game to the USA is not entirely appropriate here. There are issues with the "ko" and "bent four in the corner" rules, as these have changed in wording though not so much in effect, since the book was published. If a revised edition is ever written, which with the number of other (more expensive) books on the subject is unlikely, it would be a good idea to have all the diagrams on the same page as the text which refers to them, and the references to marked stones in the text is made difficult by the fact that the ink flows which means that the marks are somewhat obscured in the text. This is a common fault in go English language Go books, but since the marked stones in the figures show up almost perfectly, it should be possible to fix this in another printing. All in all, authoritative but out of date, it will do so long as someone who is aware of the new rules can mention that there are minor issues to potential readers.
