The 36 StratagemsTorwards the end of the Ming Dynasty (some 300 years ago) an unknown writer published "Secret Art of War: The 36 Stratagems" writing down for the first time war stratagems which first appeared in the official history of Southern Qi about 1500 years ago. "The 36 Stratagems" are a military classic of ancient China and has its emphasis on deception as military art. Here we discuss how those stratagems might apply to Go. Stratagems when in superiour position
Stratagems for confrontation
Stratagems for attack
Stratagems for confused situations
Stratagems for gaining ground
Stratagems for desperate situations
The thirty-six stratagems of Go is also a book by Ma Xiaochun in which he transfers the military stratagems to the Go Game. Read FYI I picked up a book years ago, Lure the Tiger Out of the Mountains by Gao Yuan. Business focus, not Go, but an excellent book with history of each strategy.
