 Rating:  - should be called how to be a power rangerthis is a piece of junk. dont waste your time or money on this worthless excuse of a book. the pictures of the wannabe power ranger should speak volumes alone for how bad this book is. if you are still unconvinced look at the diagrams done in western form instead of traditional asian style. the dumbest thing in this book has to be where it talks about driving the cartilage of the nose thru the brain causing death. when any person who knows anything about martial arts knows that is impossible to do ... Read More Rating:  - Pocket encyclopedia Very comprehensive of vital, fragile, and pressure points throughout human body. Master Long sprung for a professional illustrator this time and it definitely improves understanding of context. Only complaint is that in all pictures of Master Long versus opponent, they are clad in shiny ninja uniforms that obscure immediate recognition of described technique Rating: - An excellent source for those who need to protect themselves...As always, I will be frank about the book to the extent of my knowledge and not pretend I'm some incredible genius when it comes to the subject, as some reviewers appear to be sometimes... So you might judge my bias or qualifications for yourself, I am a martial artist and I've been studying it for 6 and 1/2 years, though I don't consider myself the greatest source, but take my word for what it's worth. I am also a student in a pre-medical field (I haven't decided precisely which path ...

As Master Long says, most school nowadays are run by the moto: A student is a fee, a test is a fee, a rank is a fee. Giving rank to an undeserving student is dishonorable yet I have seen it happen too often. The worst part is the student feels prepared for a violent encounter. The book focuses on the 43 main anatomical targets. It contains 180 anatomical ... Read More Rating: - The Black Dragons best workMr.Long does not deserve the bad rap that he takes.Dragon Touch was way ahead of its time with releasing this much needed material.I agree he should have never wore those Ultra man costumes and done those techniques ,although the neck breaks are valid. This book along with Dragon Touch 2 are his most complete and comprehensive ones. Loads of info to be studied.The way I look at a book is if I can learn one or two things out of it.Then it was worth it. |
