In Korean, the term haengma refers to the development of stones, specifically the choices to be made for continuation from any given stone. The choice of a one-space jump, a knight's move, etc. is dependent on the overall situation. This book is an excellent, thorough treatment of this important topic. It begins with a discussion of the situations in which particular haengma are appropriate, followed by a series of tests, each exploring good and bad continuations. Next are examples from amateur and pro games, examining correct and incorrect choices. The book concludes with a comparison of different haengma in particular situations, again discussing good and bad choices. The Master of Haengma is superbly designed for effective study. 288 pages.
