Title: I want my money back!
Review: This is another unsuccessful entry in the author's ambitious, all-encompassing series on Chinese martial arts. This book does not provide sufficient detail to enable one to learn on his own, and for someone who already has a competent instructor, it offers little more beyond the obvious and the superficial. In other words, this book has no intended audience. This work, as well as many others by the author, appears to be little more than a translation of a hodge-podge of Chinese martial arts books written by "real" masters of the craft. The only redeeming quality of this work is that it is actually written in intelligible English, in contrast to some of the other translated Chinese books on the subject. Definitely not worth its exorbitant price.
