• Another nice translation from Dr. Yang.
  Probably NOT all that useful to the beginner, but certainly to the intermediate and advanced student -- even to those practicing styles other than Wu. For those of you who haven't looked at these translations from Yang J-M, they are worth the trouble for all the little corners of insight your practice alone -- and your own traditional texts alone -- won't provide.

• Authentic Explanation for the Theories
  This is a must have for everyone who is willing to diligently study, and practice Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan.

I believe that without a thorough understanding of the theories underneath, one's skill can never prosper. Very useful book!
