Summary: Best Karate is the Best
Review: Best Karate Series books are excellent and this one is no exception. The transistion from technique to technique is excellent. Most other books just show the end result of each "move", Best Karate shows YOU how to get there. I also liked the Bunkai (application) section for each kata.

Summary: Karate Ressurrection
Review: Sensei Nakayama's book is excellent. Its advantages are that the techniques are explained in full detail and they are all performed by top JKA instructors.While its a great book during Nakayama's time (and probably till the late 80's), its my humble opinion that this book is a little outdated. Many JKA masters today have improvished on some of the techniques so perhaps its more advisable to get a more up to date version by either Sensei Kanazawa or Sensei Enoeda. Having said all these, its nevertheless a book which has no equal in the world of Shotokan.
Rating:
Summary: Excellent teaching source for the intermediate to advanced.
Review: Through the use of pictures, american and japanese language, Nakayama is able to explain the kata's required after the Heian kata's in Shotokan Karate-do
