Enclosure Josekis - the book

Keywords: Opening, Joseki, Books & Publications
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. Bill: There is a book, Shimari no Joseki (Enclosure Josekis) by Okubo Ichigen, 9-dan, which is #14 in the Go Super Books series by the Nihon Kiin. I think it's also out of print, but who knows? Charles First published 1971 - so I guess Bill is correct. 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.
