Pressure-Point Fighting: A Guide to the Secret Heart of Asian Martial Arts

Rating:
Summary: A book for Martial Artists, not sports people.
Review: This is NOT a book for those who want a list of instructions, it is a book for those who think. I found that Rick's book has taught me to think outside the circle and to be able to put 'effective self defence' back into my art (Tae Kwon Do), most of which has been progressively taken out as some styles of TDK moved to become just sport. Like others, I have some criticisms on the quality of the publication but certainly none on the content. If you think that 'the clothes maketh the man' then this is not for you but if you started into the martial arts to better defend yourself then this is a definite BUY.
