The first part of [ext] Palace of Memory is all about tactics--shape and "templates" for close-in fighting. Then it goes on to an overview of strategic concerns in the opening, such as what moves are big, a couple of common jungsuk, and a guide to the endgame that discusses determining the value of different plays and the different forms of sente.
