Invented 2500-4000 years ago, the game of Go has enthralled hundreds of millions of people in Asia, where it is an integral part of the culture. In the West, hundreds of thousands have learned of its pleasures, especially after the game appeared in a number of hit movies, TV series, and books, and was included on major Internet game sites. By eliciting the highest powers of rational thought, the game draws players, not just for the thrills of competition, but because they feel it enhances their mental, artistic, and even spiritual lives. __Go! More Than a Game__ uses the most modern methods of teaching, so that, in a few minutes, anyone can understand the two basic rules that generate the game.

In a series of exciting teaching games, you will watch as Go's beautiful complexities begin to unfold in intertwining patterns of black and white stones.

More Than a Game__, complete with the history of Go as well as essays on Go in culture, is a wonderful introductio
