From the Foreword --
Yilun Yang 7P is one of the
most popular go teachers in the US. He has many Internet students, holds
frequent workshops around the country, and has published many books
about the game and his special approach to playing it, emphasizing
following precepts rather than memorizing patterns and sequences.
Yang was born in China in 1951 and
had an active career as a professional go player and teacher there,
before coming to the US in 1986. He lives near Los Angeles, California.

Yang’s workshops typically involve
several lectures and thorough analyses of the games participants play
each day. In the lectures he guides players through the unusual approach
to thinking about and playing the game that he has worked out during
many years of teaching. He believes that play should be guided by
applying easily understood principles rather than by memorizing common
patterns and special sequences. This even applies to playing joseki,
especially complicated ones, as one of the lectures in this book makes
clear.
