Eric Johnson (College park, MD. USA)
Good book with a helpful grasp of the history of kung fu. Also has some very useful information for proper foundations and stances. I feel that you should already have a grasp of some style of kung fu to properly appreciate and understand this book

Excellent Tai Chi Chuan Book! August 29, 2007
Sysop (Dayton, Ohio)
I am a beginner to the study of Tai Chi Chuan, and I was looking for a book that would satisfy my overall curiosity of various aspects of Tai Chi Chuan. This is the book! Written very well by Wong Kiew Kit, it reads smoothly and is an enjoyable read. Very hard to put it down once you start. Packed with so much information I plan to read it a second time and will use it as a reference frequently. Do you want to learn more than just the health aspects of Tai Chi Chuan? Then this book will explore the martial art, the history, the physical, and the philosophical areas of Tai Chi Chuan to help you get the most out of it's practice. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone interested in or currently studying Tai Chi Chuan. This is the perfect book to start off your Tai Chi Chuan collection.
Required Reading July 16, 2007

I've been practicing Tai Chi Chuan since 1989, and this is the best book I have ever read on the art ( apart from the Tai Chi Classics by Waysun Liao). It is the most comprehensive book on Tai Chi Chaun I know to be available.
For students of the art I would go as far as to say it is required reading. Read this book and you'll see why.
