User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Practical self defense system
I bought this book and have finished about 3 quarters of it.I think with a lot of practice and with the help of the dvd a person could train themselves to use this style of Jeet Kune Do and succesfully defend themselves in a street confrontation.Everything is explained thoroughly and there are tons of pics ,with some being closeups or alternate angles.I would recomend this book to anyone interested in learning Jeet Kune Do.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Not From True Lineage And Thus Makes Mistakes About Punches
Best condensation from allot of various knowledge but with allot of creative license. He needs to pay for a bunch more time training under Guru Dan.
This author is not certified from the original lineage (Guru Dan) only person in U.S. originally with permission, by Bruce, to teach Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do in the U.S. and thus makes some serious mistakes in punch integration in the book. Also, a big 0 in focus pad drills that only Guru Dan had directly from Bruce. (Focus pads was one of Bruce's favorite training methods.) Also, much creative license is taken with Wing Chun and Chinese names for things. This is a good book if you can get it cheap for some of the Wing Chun portions etc. but, Kevin Seaman's book is much better for real authentic JKD. Also, since there are so many less than original JKD books out there best to get either Dan Inosanto's DVDs on JKD. Or his son in law's Ron Balicki's DVDs or Paul Vunak's DVDs.
The author is obviously sincere and very studiously trained in things he could such as The Tao Of Jeet Kune Do. (Btw, unfinished massive collection of Bruce's notes he never meant for publication)
But, for the wing chun a good supplement try Yip Chuns book on Wing Chun or many other resources. (note you cannot get chi sao from a book either)
JKD was meant to be a creative process to take what you need and add what is specifically your own with what works best for you, BUT not to disregard the essentials. So, stick with originals is probably the best advice.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Good JKD book
While I have not finished this book, yet, it seems to be
a good addition to the JKD arsenal. Some spellings are
different, but no big deal! Good job! Thanks




Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - really good book on the art of JKD
This book was simply amazing to read and to follow along on the different techniques, exercises, and drills. I have a question: Is this book supposed to be in colour photos or just grey and white? I got mine in grey and white so I just wanted to know. This book goes through the 5 ways of attack in JKD, wooden dummy, sticky hands, energy drills, kicking drills, 1 inch punch/kick, and much much more! I am glad that I purchased this book and it is one of the best books of JKD on the market.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Amazingly accurate but too much trapping !!
Don't get me wrong, this is by far the most complete,up to date, accurate and full of photographs JKD book in the market ! Everything, and I mean really everything of this art is covered with an astonishing amount of pictures. I have never seen a book so loaded with pictures, describing every angle and each and every movement in JKD.
So I will not repeat the positive qualities of this book, already very much described in other reviews.
On the negative side: complement this book with a more streetfighting oriented book. This book is also very much focused on trapping, tunneling, and related drills which have limited use in real world experience (unless you spend years daily training with them).
So, for the phisical preparation, and training, all of these drills are veru useful, but, I would use it only for training purposes.
