Title: Nicely Illustrated Judo Text
Review: I bought this book after having read Kodokan Judo by Jigoro Kano, Textbook of Judo by Nagayasu Ogasawara and Best Judo by Isao Inokuma and Nobuyuki Sato. If I were starting Judo from scratch again, I think Judo Unleashed by Neil Ohlenkamp would be a great book to start with becuase it is so clearly illustrated (color with tori and uki in blue and white gi), it gives a nice history of the art and it provides a very well-done explanation of Judo Philosophy on and off the mat. The appendices are well-organized and there is a great explanation of tournament rules. I think this book is a great reference for newcomers to the sport.
