description: The books begin with go fundamentals and help the learner grow into more advanced concepts as the volumes continue. Each volume is 168 pages long and follows the same format. After a short glossary of go terminology (mostly English or Korean with a occasional Japanese alternatives) appropriate for the volume a brief episode of a serial manga introduces the volume generally about eight pages long. The books continue with 20 lessons each of which briefly introduces a new or review concept and then drills the concept with 24-36 problems. Interspersed among the lessons are two or three short articles on go culture especially in South Korea and a number of opening samples game records containing only the first 20-35 moves of a game. The book concludes with three 20-problem tests to help the student assess her mastery of the concepts contained in that volume.
