Rating:  Summary: A great book from a great teacher Review: I am an actual student of Professor Willaims and can assure you that the reviewer below has no idea of what they are talking about. The author of this book has been very successful and has owned several schools, so I don't know where they got the idea that he never made it. Also, I don't remember there being any self promotion or any signs of a huge ego within the text. If you would have actually held a conversation with the author, you would have realized how knowledgeable he is on the subject along with many other things.
Rating:  Summary: Every Karate Practitioner Should Read This Book Review: I met Sascha Williams at the first California Martial Arts Day in 1997 . He was escorting Mrs. Ed Parker to the celebration on the steps of the State Capitol. Sascha gave me a signed copy of the book and since then I have read it three times and told many Kenpo folks about it. The first two sections are for every Kenpo practitioner and the final section is especially for instructors. A fine book on American Kenpo continuing the work of the late Ed Parker.
Rating:  Summary: Ego inflation. Review: Only 2 reviews for a book by the "master" of Kenpo? If you ever spoke with the author or read any of his writings, you'd know why. Heck, even the 1 reviewer that did give this a 4 * rating admits he was given the book (i.e. Not worth actually spending the ca$h for it). This guy is a legend in his own mind. I read part of this book when a friend showed it to me. We both got a good laugh at this guy's constant self promotion. I looked up the author at a Martial Arts event once not to long ago. I found he runs a tiny little school in a tiny backwater town in California. If he was the great sage he claims, why can't he make it in a town with some competition? Why aren't his books actually selling? :oD
