Handicap Go, by Nagahara Yoshiaki and Richard
Bozulich. Volume 7 of the Elementary Go Series. Ishi G16;
1982.
This is the last volume of the Elementary Go
Series. It covers handicap go both from the point
of view of black and from the point of view of white (though the
former is emphasized more), including sample games and problems.
It's about general principles rather than, for example, specific
handicap joseki, which I think is a good decision. I don't have
strong feelings about this book, but what feelings I do have are
positive.

(NNGS 5k*) says:
This is a good book, but it seems to be aimed at kyu players who
are playing dan players, rather than high-kyu players who are
playing mid-kyu players, so you may be disappointed if you're
15k trying to learn how to deal with your 9k friend. Most of it
went over my head the first time I read it, but I read it again
recently and liked it a lot more.
