Summary: clear and concise
Comment: Tae Kwon Do Basics (formerly released as Korean Karate for Kids) is a very good book for beginners. It's richly illustrated with clear photos and line drawings showing each step of each move. Even better, the illustrations are accompanied by clear text descriptions of each move. The chapters cover stances, exercises and stretches, some kicks and punches, blocks, a few basic forms (katas), sparring techniques, and self-defense moves. The charm of this book is its simplicity and clarity. (Plus, it's very inexpensive -- always a good thing!) I highly recommend this to anyone considering taking American Karate or Tae Kwon Do, as well as parents of children taking martial arts.
(Keith Yates wrote Tae Kwon Do Basics as a 6th degree black belt. He's now a 10th degree black belt.)

Summary: THIS BOOK STANDS UP TO ITS TITLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment: This incredible book shows you the basic stuff about the most popular and widespread martial art in the world. It goes over the history of the art very well. You get to see the pictures of all the fantastic moves like the kicks, punches, etc. ITS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!
The book also contains all the defensive tactics you'll ever need to thwart your attacker's strikes, kicks, chokes, and grabs.All the moves are broken down to its most easily learned form.
There is a chapter in the book devoted to self-defense techniques that are real GOOD. This chapter alone is worth the price of the entire book. After reading this book, you will find out why people around the world choose to learn Tae Kwon Do instead of any other martial art. This book only teaches you about he simple fighting techniques that can be mastered very easily. There are no complicated moves at all.
If you want to defend yourself good, then get this book.

Summary: Only possibly useful for a total beginner
Comment: I am a white belt and still thought this book was essentially useless. I should have gotten one of the slightly more expensive, in-depth books I believe.
