This is a very gentle and well written introduction to Go. It is only the first book of the series and it does not go very deep into go concepts; it just covers the basic rules and strategy. It does have many 'background facts' that are not needed when playing, but are interesting. I'd recommend this book for those who are just starting with Go, but for those with some (limited) experience or adults, I'd recommend Go for Beginners by Kaoru Iwamoto (which goes much deeper and faster into go strategy). I have also read the 2nd in this series, "Learn to Play Go: The Way of the Moving Horse by Janice Kim and Jeong Soo-Hyun", and it progress slowly as well, but is well written and a good follow up. If you buy the first book, I'd buy this book too. I don't regret buying this book, but may sell it now that I have read it. Also comes with a cardboard go board (in 3 sizes: 19x19, 13x13, 9x9) Summary: If you want an easy introduction to go, this book is for you, though you'll need to buy another book later for more advanced strategy.Read full review
This is a very elementary (but correct in all respects) introduction to the game of go. Want more? There are four more volumes that get you quite a ways farther.

Janice Kim is a master at teaching the fundamentals of the game of go. She presents the materials in a lively style that keeps the reader interested. Her series of volumes is appropriate for both young and old students alike. Highly recommended!
