Opening Theory Made Easy

Twenty Strategic Principles to Improve Your Opening Game

by Otake Hideo 9-dan

The book tries to keep things simple. It doesn't contain long complicated sequences with many variations. The author manages to explain deep things simply.

From the Preface: "... In this book I have selected what I consider to be 20 key points of the fuseki and explained them with concrete examples. This book is made up of three chapters (Fuseki Fundamentals, Good Shape, Strategy), but the division is not very significant. I recommend that the reader treat my 20 principles as proverbs and familiarize himself with them until they become second nature ... Knowledge of these principles will help you develop a deeper understanding of the fuseki and master its basic strategy. ..."

Some of the principles in the book:

Unfortunately this book is hard to get in Europe. The best chance is probably to get it used from another Go player. I'd recommend it for 15k - 5k players.
