Negative Positive
Title: Author knows his topic, but fails to convey content clearly
Review: It is obvious once you are done reading this book that the author has a strong grasp of the science of stretching. There are good stretching techniques mentioned in the book, complete with exercise plans depending on your sport and an Question/Answer section.However, the book reads more like a technical thesis than something intended for a non-medical audience. For a book that is past its third revision, the pictures HAVE to be updated from grainy black-and-white and confusing stick figures. Finally, one can't help thinking less of the author when he peppers his writing with comments that show a lack of understanding of existing martial art stretching techniques.There is much that can be improved in this book. If you don't mind spending the money (it's more expensive than it should be) then you'll find some helpful ideas, but not much more.
