Enclosure Josekis

An Ishi Press book by Takemiya Masaki on reducing and defending various corner enclosures along with extensions.

It is out of print. A good substitute may be Keshi and Uchikomi - Reduction and Invasion in Go by Iwamoto Kaoru.


There are chapters on each of the 3453 enclosure, 3463 enclosure, 3454 enclosure, 4-4 point enclosures, and a final chapter on miscellaneous invasions. The only really distinctive material is a little on the 3554 enclosure, in my opinion.

For the rest it's dullish - nothing especially Takemiya-like - in a joseki dictionary sort of way, with essentially no whole-board thinking. There could easily be much better treatments of these middlegame joseki.
