ericjones80 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 The Complete Idiot's Guide to Karate has a lot of good, although general information on Karate.Funakoshi's book is a good read as well. It tends to deal more with his philosophy towards Karate in general, though.Those "Idiots" and "Dummies" books are a lot better than they lead on....on all topics. I've read the Karate one and it is very informative. I support Gym Jones I use AWMA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kittyblue-eyes Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I hear Catherine Pinch is coming out with a good one. Not sure about the name, it's about one of the masters...Darn, I wish I could remember the name for you. I've read excerpts from it and they were good, though more entertainment than educational. Something about someone hating snakes, so a few senior students recommend the younger student impress him with snakes. There's more to it than anecdotes. If I think of it, I'll pop back in.
