This book teaches you most of the Judo throws,but it is missing 24 throws. Besides that its got all the choke holds and arm holds but missing 6 katas.
Rated by buyers -
The very first thing I noticed in this book was how outdated some of the material was. For instance they demonstrate a incorrect way of break falling that sent shivers down my spine thinking somebody at home would learn this method. What the book does positively. Covers all core throwing techniques with a section on counters and combinations. I also might mention that many Judo books have the Judoka both wearing the same colored gi which sometimes give the appearance that they assimilating. Bruce's book has Judoka wearing different colored gi's which is a nice touch. The newaza like most Judo books is spartan at best. A couple of pins, the chokes we all know and love, you basic armlocks and that is about it. In a sea of Judo books this comes in the middle somewhere, but I will admit I have picked up a couple combinations from this manual and have used them successfully in randori.
