Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming's Analysis Of Shaolin Chin Na (1594390002, $26.95) may sound familiar to the seasoned martial arts reader: in fact, it's a second edition: so why a second edition of a popular instructor's manual covering all martial arts styles? Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming has written over 40 books on the Chinese martial arts and is a recognized authority on the subject: the first edition of Analysis Of Shaolin Chin Na sold over 100,000 copies, and returns a classic survey of Chin Na Quin Na to public attention. Darrell Max Craig's The Way Of Kendo & Kenjitsu:soul Of The Samurai (1594390029, $22.95) covers the 'way of the sword': as much a martial arts practice as a sport. Kendo, the art of the Japanese sword, is a demanding art not for the novice, and Craig's The Way Of Kendo & Kenjitsu provides insights on Kendo skills requirements, from exercises and equipment to the latest katas of the All Japan Kendo Federation.
