Book Reviews of Martial Arts For Dummies

Book Review: A Good General Introduction to Martial Arts
Summary: 4 Stars

This book provides a good overview of martial arts. It is a particularly good book for someone who is just thinking about getting involved in martial arts training. The author gives a brief introduction to a wide variety of styles and what to expect from each.

Ms. Lawler also gives very helpful information to a prospective or new martial artist on ranking systems, training routines, competition, and even some self defense basics.

I think that this book is even good for more experienced practitioners of the martial arts. It covers a lot of interesting information on history and various tidbits on the martial arts culture and different styles. It is definitely a worthwhile purchase.
