The Complete Book of Yiquan

There are some typos, the most minor being misspellings and the worst being wrongly numbered items (at least, I hope it was wrongly numbered and not omitted information) in one section and the pictures in the Tuo Yao section being incomprehensible. Aside from those, the book is a wealth of information for the practitioner. There's a lot of interesting history and trivia, but the author puts the most emphasis of outlining his lineage's practice methods. There are a lot of pictures of past and present Yiquan masters practicing, as well as information on stance training, which would've been more than enough material. But the author takes it a step further by describing the style's practices beyond Zhan Zhuang. All in all, this is a very good book to have. There aren't any English-language books about Yiquan out there with this breadth and depth.

Not a book for just reading / mental understanding. It is a book for practice. Longer practice, better undertanding. If just read and put back the book on shelves most probable is insignificant achievment. If read, practice few times per day and review for deeper understanding the book is opening new horizons and is changing destines. How many peoples are waiting for such chances?

Good information for a experience practitioner I don't see this book helpful to begginers other than that great history lesson.
