More Details

This book is an introduction and tutorial for the ancient game of Chinese chess, called xiangqi in Mandarin Chinese. It is intended both for people familiar with Western chess (henceforth referred to simply as chess) who wish to explore a fascinating variant, and for those who have never played any version of chess before in their lives. The later chapters should also be of some interest for more experienced players as they contain discussions of advanced strategic techniques. Each chapter has been given a heading from Sun Tzu's The Art of War, a classic text which applies well to xiangqi.
