Amazon Reviews:

“If there’s a better book on the subject, I haven’t found it sitting on a bookstore shelf yet. “

“The material covered by Master Anderson is priceless, easy to understand and inspiring. “

“I value this book greatly for the excellent extra ANGLES it can inspire — and see that it may inspire many other Kenpo, Karate and Tae Kwon Do folks — to add new angles to their Shotokan roots .”

“Purchased 30 some years ago and found it to be one of the best books I ever purchased on KARATE at that time, and still feel it is one of the best publications to this day. “

“This book is by far the finest text I have found on actually using your karate, kung fu, or tae kwon do for fighting. I felt that after reading it I actually became a better fighter; more confident, and able to read my opponents better. If you are actually serious about your martial arts practice being useful and relevant in a physical confrontation then you need this book. “

“Possibly the Greatest Sparring Book Available.  This book is a must for anyone who wants to take sparring seriously.   This book is not a standard “primer” on martial art movements and techniques, but instead, is a masterpiece in giving the karateka tools, both mentally and physically, to enhance their sparring abilities. The book discusses everything from entry and retreat to attacking and defending. Ideas are explored such as offensive and defensive attacking postures.  The book discusses sparring for tournament, the dojo (training hall) and self-defense. This book was published in 1982 and still remains the epitome of sparring manuals. An absolute must! “

This new edition contains not only the original text and photos but has an additional 40 years of insights, refinements and lots of additional information that will take your free-sparring skills to the next level and beyond!   There has never been another book like this and it just got better!
