Summary: All things considered, not bad...
Review: As long as you remember what this book is trying to be, it's not a bad book. The book reprints articles that originally appeared in the now defunct INSIDE TAE KWON DO magazine. As such, none of the articles go into great details on their given topics, but you get enough general information to whet your appetite.

Summary: Great Overview of Taekwondo
Review: First, I am a 2nd degree black belt and instructor in Tae Kwon Do, and I approached this book from that perspective. I guess that this book could be good for the beginner as an introduction to Tae Kwon Do, but you could probably do better just by going to your dojang. I certainly didn't buy it.

Summary: Great Overview of Taekwondo
Review: This is a very interesting book. It is made up of articles which first appeared in Inside Taekwondo magazine between 1993 and 1995. This magazine was edited by John Corcoran, who has made some notable contributons to the martial arts with his editing, writing, and his martial art encyclopedias. So, you can be sure the articles are pertinent and well written. What this book provides the reader with is a excellent overview of Taekwondo from some of the great modern Masters, including: Hee Il Cho, Scott Shaw, and Keith D. Yates. Moreover, this book is not simply filled with pages of photo techniques. It details the history of Taekwondo, Trainning Methods, and Taekwondo Combat Techniques. This book is a great addition to the library of any discriminating reader.
