Go,
called baduk in Korean and wei-chi or weiqi in Chinese, is a 4,000
year-old game of strategy played by more than 100 million people.
Go
was considered one of the Four Great Accomplishments of ancient
China, one of the worthy pursuits of a lifetime. It is both an art and a mental workout
- ingeniously disguised as a game. Anyone, from children of five
or six to people in their nineties, can play and enjoy Go.
