I still have good hope that the page number will be about the same despite...
Do you already have made a selection of the josekis which will be discussed in volume three?
...400+ josekis, 100+ pro game examples and all the new extras. It has been hard work to keep the page number within reasonable bounds:) The selection of josekis has the aims "every joseki a player needs", "including modern josekis", "without most rare, complicated josekis no one can remember anyway", "without most old-fashioned josekis, which professionals scarcely play today".
There are reasons why I could well restrict the page number:
- Especially Volume 1 but also Volume 2 provide many explanations for basic moves, strategic lines, group meanings etc., which I do not need to repeat for every basic move in every joseki.
- The low percentage of complicated josekis avoids many additional variations for their study.
- There is another very important reason I do not reveal yet, but you will see...:)
