Book Reviews of Complete Wing Chun: The Definitive Guide to Wing Chun's History and Traditions (Complete Martial Arts)
Book Review: Comprehensive analysis of several major Wing Chun systems
Summary: 4 Stars
There are a number of books on the market that claim to cover Wing Chun in such a way that one could learn from the book, or at least supplement your studies from the book (usually Yip Man Wing Chun, I find); some are good, some are bad. This is not one of them. This is essentially a well written presentation of research, detailing the contents of several major forms of Wing Chun; it covers their histories, development, forms, training techniques, concepts and key principles. It also contains a comprehnsive glossary of Wing Chun terms, and people and organisations involved with the history of Wing Chun. Illustrations are liberally placed throughout the book, illustrating the many diversities in movement and style between the different types of Wing Chun. This book is a worthy addition to any martial artists library, and students of Wing Chun will be fascinated to compare their own branch with the others discussed in the book. Note that this is a reference book rather than a novel; it's not a light read except for the most dedicated of students.
