Kihon Joseki Jiten

    Keywords: Joseki, Books & Publications

Kihon Joseki Jiten (基本定石事典) is the two-volume work by Ishida Yoshio in the Nihon Ki-in dictionary series, that was translated into the English-language Ishida Joseki Dictionary. That was of the first edition, from the early 1970s.

There was a second edition, from about 1996, with quite a bit of new material in some sections (and a new section, on the reverse approach?). That has not been translated; nor is likely to be in the near future.

Dave: I heard (July 2006) from Takahashi Hideo 7p, one of Ishida Yoshio's students, that work has just started on a 3rd edition. Right now they are thinking about what, if any, basic changes to make in the subject matter in order to make it more interesting for readers.
