Reader ReviewsThis is one of those very few books that is able to give a solid, concrete introduction to a very complicated subject matter that a beginner can grasp but at the same time manages to give pointers and insights that will benefit very seasoned and experienced practioners. It is a very practical and user friendly book devoid of the sometimes confusing jargon and terminolgy often found in similar books. It should be of interest to tai chi and chi gung practioners as well as other martial artists and anyone interested in improving their health. Highly recommended.
