Ishida Yoshio
    Keywords: People

Ishida Yoshio (born 15 August 1948) was one of the strongest players of the 1970s. He held several major titles:

His name is also connected to a series of three joseki books, the Dictionary of Basic Joseki, which are still the most important Joseki books in the English language.

Takahashi Hideo is his pupil.

BillSpight: An accomplished guitarist and singer, Ishida used to perform in Jazz coffeeshops in Tokyo. (I don't know if he still does.) His presence and articulateness make him a popular go lecturer and commentator.

Last year (2000) he was voted the most popular commentator by the fans of NHK's Sunday TV Go tournament, just beating out Michael Redmond. DaveSigaty
