4.0

I was so ready for this book in the series. Finally, very practical topics such as invasion and reduction, running battles, and capturing races. I can't say I absorbed every nuance of the chapters on ko fighting and killing shapes but the foundations are well laid - I'm essentially ready to drill tsumego until throw ins and pins and vital points are second nature. A theory book can only do so much.

I highly recommend this series and the game of Go. It is quickly becoming one of the most fascinating games I have encountered.
