One reviewer was quite rude and unfair to Bruce Lee, took offense to the man as though he had written the book. Bruce Lee's writings were made into a book, Bruce Lee did not write nor construct the book. So appreciating that fact, it's fair to say that a reader gets a pretty good idea as to what type of prerson ...             Chi Gung: Chinese Healing, Energy and Natural Magick22 reviews Lily of the Valley Carnie Llewellyn Publications, 2002 Chi Gung, taught as it should be I find this book to be superb. I am particularly attacted to its flexibility, which fits in with the fact that the form of Chi Gung which Ms. Carnie practices is "The Flowing". Lily Carnie is a skilled teacher unlike many who know *how* to do something but don't know how to pass on that ability. The Olympic coach Laurence E.Morehouse found that an extremely ineffective way to teach someone how ...             The Shaolin Grandmasters' Text: History, Philosophy, and Gung Fu of Shaolin Ch'an23 reviews Order of Shaolin Ch'an Tuttle Publishing, 2008 The Shaolin Grandmasters' Text: History, Philosophy, and Gung Fu of Shaolin Ch'an Great book!! Good introduction to Shaolin, answers many questions. Besides a basic history & philosophy of Shaolin it talks about BASIC martial arts stances, techniques, styles, etc. "hows & whys", I wish I had run across this book 20 years ago!             The Essential Qigong Training Course: 100 Days to Increase Energy, Physical Health & Spiritual Well-Being17 reviews Ken Cohen Sounds True, 2005 Extremely Practical Ken Cohen is clear in his descriptions - knowledgable of the material - useful in the information and exercises he describes and practices and models in the CD's, DVD's and book. The practice of qigong can be learned well through this material. He is down to earth in his explanations and demontrations, making understanding very accessible.             Chinese Gung Fu: The Philosophical Art of Self-Defense11 reviews Bruce Lee Black Belt Communications, 1987 Kung Fu in a nutshell! Bravo! To the dude who said it was not good for the beginner in martial arts, I totally disagree. In fact, as a new student of Choy Li Fut gung fu and not the wing chun that bruce lee practiced this book has greatly enhanced my training and knowledge. I have the Choy Li Fut kung fu book by Doc Fai Wong and it lacks many details on footwork and punches. Bruce Lee covered the basics which are essential ...             The CHI Revolution: Harnessing the Healing Power of Your Life Force19 reviews Bruce Frantzis Blue Snake Books, 2008 I am no longer powerless to change my attitudes, thoughts, and outlook 1. Experience how deeply troubled you are about an unwanted occurrence, emotion, or illness, and become aware of your anger and resentment toward it. Become conscious of your resistance to it. You must experience the feelings about unwanted occurrences or illness in your life, so you can begin to heal. "I have created this hurt and sadness by forgetting my essence". 2. See and realize how you ...             Opening the Energy Gates of Your Body: Chi Gung for Lifelong Health (Tao of Energy Enhancement)37 reviews Bruce Frantzis Blue Snake Books, 2005 Potentially life changing - must read! I've been interested in Chi-Gung and Taoist things for a number of years. Took a few classes, etc, but nothing has been as detailed and to the point as this material from Mr Frantzis. Honestly, most chi-gung books and many classes out there just teach you some physical movements or "standing like a tree".. stand in different poses and hold it without a whole lot of additional instruction as ...             Gung Ho! Turn On the People in Any Organization105 reviews Ken Blanchard William Morrow, 1997 Gung Ho is for real! I did not think it could happen - but with our new intitatives and company wide conference calls explaining them, people are begining to take on the Gung Ho mentality. It's all in the approach. The book taught us that.             Squawk!: How to Stop Making Noise and Start Getting Results72 reviews Travis Bradberry Collins Business, 2008 Guilty! SQUAWK by Travis Bradberry Ph.D. I'm guilty of squawking, the most ineffective method of management imaginable. SQUAWK shows me why I need to change and how I can change. SQUAWK can benefit all of us, even those of us who do not consider ourselves managers. All of us play different roles, sometimes as managers and sometimes as those being managed. The natural way to react to people we ...             A Complete Guide to Chi-Gung4 reviews Daniel Reid Shambhala, 2000 Excellent and responsible introduction to chi gung. I was introduced to the practice of chi gung through the writings of Daniel Reid--this book and another on traditional Chinese medicine. The descriptions of the exercises are the best of any of the books I have read since (about 8), and the practice routine he includes is extremely well-structured and beneficial. I have been doing this routine daily for about 6 months, and have enjoyed numerous ...             A Few Good Memories: Tales from USMC Boot Camp2 reviews Bob Taylor Trafford Publishing, 2002 Outstanding! Picked this up after hearing about it through a buddy from the "Together We Served" website. You Devil Dogs who don't know about that site, need to check it out. Anyway, back to the book, not going to go on and on and on about, except to say that it really hits home and brings back floods of memories. Those who served know, and wherever your dividing line for your USMCRD was, it makes no ...             Bruce Lee. El Tao del Gung Fu Bruce Lee Paidotribo editorial, 2006 El gung fu, antecesor del karate, ju-jutsu, etc., es una de las formas conocidas más antiguas de defensa personal y se puede considerar como la esencia concentrada de sabiduría y pensamientos profundos sobre el arte del combate. Bruce Lee emprendió en 1963 la redacción de un manual detallado acerca del Tao del Gung Fu; ese libro nunca fue publicado, pero las notas que escribió entonces han sido compiladas y editadas por John Little ...             18 Buddha Hands Qigong3 reviews Larry Johnson White Elephant Monastery, 1998 Highly recommended for students of Buddhism, Qigong, I Ching Buddhism, Qigong, the I Ching, and Chinese medicine have been integrally linked together for centuries. All these systems originate from a common theoretical view of reality and compliment, clarify, support, and occasionally challenge each other. Larry Johnson's 18 Buddha Hands Qigong examines Qigong in general, and the energetic transformations possible through these practices, exploring ...             Mook Yan Joang (Wooden Dummy Form) (3) Randy Williams Unique Publications, 2006 Volume 3 of this series features a detailed introduction to the use of Wing Chuns famous Mook Yan Joang, or Wooden Man Dummy.

Practical ...             Tai Chi Ruler: Chinese Yoga for Health and Longevity1 review Terry Dunn Dragon Door Publications, 1996 Great little book on little known facet of tai chi The original Tai Chi art (not the modern, watered down versions) can be so frustratingly difficult that it's nice when you can learn an aspect of it that really isn't that hard such as the Tai Chi ruler. This book is on such a topic, it's a fine book on a little known aspect of tai chi. Dunn covers all the exercises, of which there are only about 10 so it's not that much to learn (at least ...             Gung Ho!: How to Draw Fantastic Military Comics3 reviews Steve Miller Watson-Guptill, 2006 Gung Ho Go! This is a fun and inspiring how to draw book. There is a good mix of real and fantasy type characters and weapons. If you like drawing military characters like in video games like Rainbow Six and Metal Gear Solid or in comics like GI Joe or Sigma 6 this is the book for you. There is a real nice section on guns and lots of helpful tips for drawing vehicles. The characters are slightly ...             Gung Ho! Turn On the People in Any Organization Ken Blanchard William Morrow, 1997             Jun Fan Gung Fu: Seeking the Path of Jeet Kune Do7 reviews Kevin R. Seaman HNL Publishing, 2001 Great textbook on Jun Fan Gung Fu I take Jun Fan Gung Fu with an Inosanto teacher, and this book is the perfect textbook for what we do in class. The author does an excellent job of discussing principles, but also techniques. The pictures are clear, and the text only really contains things you need, without extra extrapolations on stuff you don't need to learn. This is an excellent textbook on JKD/Jun Fan.             The Martial Way and Its Virtues: The Tao De Gung5 reviews F. J. Chu YMAA Publication Center, 2003 A wonderful book I think that this beautiful book will become a classic. I just lent out my only copy and wish I hadn't. Mr. Chu's writing is clear and insightful with beautiful calligraphy to accompany each chapter. I've just started taking karate and was aware of some of the philosophical underpinnings to it, but this book really explains the how and why that martial arts is a way of life--the right way to ...              search for books chi-gung, complete, defense, enhancement, essential, fantastic, getting, grandmasters, harnessing, healing, history, increase, library, lifelong, longevity, martial, memories, military, organization, philosophical, philosophy, physical, results, revolution, seeking, self-defense, spiritual, training, virtues, well-being books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
