This is an illuminating study of martial arts techniques that can readily be identified as a precursor to Jiu Jitsu, Aikido and Hapkido as well as many control techniques utilized in modern police and military applications. It is very clearly illustrated and the written descriptions are very good. I can hardly believe my fortune at acquiring such an excellent source so inexpensively. I hold rank in each of the previously mentioned martial arts, so my evaluation should hold merit. My only disappointment is that Vol. 1 does not contain any of Chin Na's excellent groundwork. I will be trying to find Volume 2 immediately.
Anyone who wishes to know more about this subject would not regret adding this book to your information arsenal.

Very clearly written by a contemporary Master. Many confusing points were illuminated perfectly in this publication. I also study Arnis which shares a lot of the techniques of Chin Na....many of my questions regarding these techniques were cleared up as well. Great writing and illustrations, I would recommend this book highly!
I like this book because it has useful information. The book is well organized and it has many pictures. Also, the author is very famous. This book is well written. Thank You!
If a bully comes at you, become a bully buster and learn some martial arts tactics that you like! Consider this: how do you wanna defend yourself?
