Summary: Very well illustrated technical reference for Chin Na
Comment: I have trained in taekwondo for a few years, and bought this book to expand my horizons. Chin Na complements just about any martial style, and this book is an excellent technical illustrated and descriptive guide of Chin Na techniques. I highly recommend it for learning new techniques that complement any martial art style.
Rating: 4
Summary: A useful resource
Comment: This impressively lengthy work acts as almost a textbook on chin na, to which one may refer in times of confusion. Dr. Yang's knowledge is impressive, his explanations of techniques are satisfactory and the photos are clear. However, many techniques are repeated in the book simply started from different attacks (eg. from a punch, from a stab etc) which although useful to the beginner as it shows the vast range of applications of a single technique, an advanced practitioner may find this frustrating. Nevertheless, this book promotes thought and encourages one to develop beyond the scope of the book. It has much to offer and is the best of Dr. Yang's books on the subject.
Rating: 5
Summary: Very good for practical techniques
Comment: I found this book very practical, especially in comparison to some other books by the author I have read. The techniques are well described, with good foto's, so that one can practice them easyly. I think a background in a locking-art, like mine in aikido, is important for the basic handling of joints, since the locks can be very dangerous. The book gave me very many variations in my aikido and I liked the many fingerlocks, which I was not familiar with.
