Summary: Fishing trip
Comment: Looking for the bits of information in this book is a fishing trip.
The thing has too many pictures with too few descriptions. Some pictures are out of order. Several diagrams and medical reference charts are inaccurate or misspelled.
There is some information of note, but it's real work finding it.

Rating: 1
Summary: Hardly qualifies as a book
Comment: This book is only 87 pages, but contains about 12 pages of information. Each page is a cheesy diagram or photo with a summary of ideas. It looks like an outline you'd get at a seminar. As hard as I tried, I could not get a few good ideas out of it. The pictures are so poorly organized that I could not even relate the author's thoughts to the photos.

All in all, you'd get more ideas out of an article from Black Belt magazine than you would from this whole book.

Rating: 4
Summary: The Why ISBN 0-9652672-4-5
Comment: This book is exactly its title "THE WHY" - The Kenpo Theory. As I would learn new techniques, the question behind the moves would always come into play. This book helps the student learn the sequence behind all of your moves.

Some of the subjects Lee explains are: Adjustment of Weapon According to Distance, Circular and Linear Motion, Covering Distance, Increasing Striking Potential, Motion Angular, Situation of Opportunity, Spontaneous Deception, The Blueprints of Kenpo, Torque Principle, Zones of Distance. I find that it is not enough to know the how. Without the why, your movements are just memorized.

Lee's ability to explain and demonstrate these theories makes this book a must for your Kenpo Karate collection. Its easy to understand and apply.
