Summary: All books on Bruce Lee are a must for all martial artist.
Review: To me Tao Of Jeet-Kune-Do is the best book for understanding Bruce Lee"s art and way of life and his style of teaching self defence and training others how to counter certain attacks. Also master Lee was a master of philosiphy.He taught people how to fight when they had to fight.Bruce Lee is everyones hero no matter who it was. To me,he was my personal teacher and mentor.Itrained under Master Paul Vunack from New York who was a great follower of Master Lee,and trained me well.Master Eddie Wacks from Florida was also my mentor. I am sadden by the lost of a great teacher but Bruce Lee left us with a lot of material and instructors to carry his work on for ever. Thanks for everything you gave us,we will remember you for ever,a student and instructor.!!

Summary: The best JKD book, with pics from Lee's movies!
Review: When I got this book, I'm was very pleased with how John Little done this with good editing from Bruce's diary on Jeet Kune Do. It's got pretty great follow along movements, and with pictures from Bruce's famous movies to show you how it's done. Like if you were reading page 193 for footwork against your opposition, you'll see 2 pics of Lee avoiding Kareem Abdul Jabbar's kick from "Game Of Death". Also, you can see James Tien's KO'ed body in the background like the other viewers said while they reviewed "Game Of Death". ;) Pages 75-78 show you how to do cool throws to bone breaks. When you look at the pics of "Game Of Death" when Lee faces off the second fighter that went "CHI-YAAH! ", you can learn how to break the limb without injury after you throw him. Better yet, have the "Game Of Death" tape and this book handy. You can put it frame to frame and you'll see what this book is talking about. When you're learning about strangleholds on page 85 against your opposition, think of what Lee did to finish Kareem Abdul Jabbar. On page 79, you can learn the Standing Neck Crank, which Lee finishes Chuck Norris off in the Coliseum finale of "Return Of The Dragon". Learning the Side Kick was easy for me to learn. When I looked at a pic of Lee teaching James Fransicus the Side Kick on "Longstreet" on page 269, it made me get inspired to do it. Way to go, Bruce! Anyway, the movements and Bruce's sketches are easy for beginners, and the pictures on how to do the moves from start to end is a GREAT touch! I even like Lee's sweep when he faces Shih Kien in the finale of "Enter the Dragon" on page 114. In my final words: If you want a great JKD book with Lee's sketches and Lee's movie pictures? Don't buy the Tao of Jeet Kune Do, buy this one! This is a COOL book and a good read for beginners.
