The book followed the following general format. The author's explanation of his art, his opinions on being a martial artist, basis stances, illustrations of dim mark (or pressure point) strikes for control and potential death, his opinions on health and nutrition, and his philosophy on teaching children martial arts. There were less than 200 pages on dim mak (or pressure points) and the rest were focused on the author's opinions and philosophy.
I gave this book three stars primarily because the book focused too much on his philosophy and opinions instead of focusing on dim mak. Moreover, the illustrations and diagrams were not as detailed as I had expected.
I think this book is an interesting read and would complement such books as, "The Ancient Art of Life and Death: The Book of Dim-Mak" which the author of the book under review also appears to have recommended. The aforementioned book is one that I owe and I use as a reference.

This book is over 300 pages and has a lot of diagrams. The diadvantage of the book is it is very complicated to learn and the movements take a lot i mean alot of time to do. i have not seen a book with that much information and exercises.if you are new to dim-mak chances are when you see the blocks and stance of dimmak you would quit. Howewer the advantage is it does have chapters on very basic self defence easy to learn moves and does show you how to ko a person and how to revive them in more than ten ways. If your searching for a book on deadly strikes this is the book to buy and yes the moves do work. so deadly that you would have to think thrice before using them and in a physical fight chances are you would not use such effective moves AUTOMATICLY if you dont practice everyday it does also explain on how the moves work and includes also the st.9 point

This book is an excellent continuation of Mr. Montaigue's very first book, "Dim-Mak: Death Point Striking". In this book, the author goes into footwork, and how to keep your ballance while moving (ignored by a lot of folks); how to handle a knife attack; different Qi-gong and other excersises; qi-related nutrition, and much more! I think a lot of what's in this volume could probably stand alone, but to truly begin to understand it's depth, the very first book is needed. Once again, the author's style of writting is very laid-back and personable; I felt like he was right there, talking to me. As for the content, this book has so much that's missing from other books on the Chinese and/or internal martial arts. For those who don't know, a lot of Mr. Montaigue's system is based on T'ai Chi and Paqua; he's just put claws on those styles, and made them "martial" again. The chapter on how to bring up internal "animal" energy was very unique, and the chapter on knife defense seems very practical. A chapter on martial arts ethics is also included, which was nice, as well as a chapter discussing teaching martial arts to children. If you own "Death Point Striking", and wish to learn more on the subject, this should be your subsequent book. I'd also recomend this to those who wish to learn about holistic health from a Chinese perspective, as well as martial artists who are searching for more than just the latest fad, who really want to refine themselves.

I must say that Erle Montaigue just never seems to dissapoint!! He is without a doubt a true master of this fine art. His technique, and training is superb. Also his explanations of how, and why are great. I would recomend it to anyone with intrest in this art. Yet another must have.

This is a very detailed book on Dim Mak. Having read other books from different authors and being disappointed. I must say that Erie has done a very good job. But don't read this one till you've read the first.
