Summary: "What if"
Comment: While this book's photo are all black and white, and no indexing etc... may be those things mattered most for beginners, but what really mattered are the number of practical techniques that are covered in the book and the "what if your partner resists scenario" as 9 out of 10 times, the first choke or lock will not sink in, and this book has both.
Why no 5 stars - price.

Summary: RIGANS Jiu-jitsu Works plain and simple!!
Comment: Everything Rigan shows in his books works, the guy is a jiu_jitsu genius!!! Great book, easy to follow, nothing flamboyant in this book. Exactly what you would expect from the best Jiu-JItsu fighter on the planet. Check out Jean-jacques book too!!!! AWESOME!!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good visual and Memory Prompt
Comment: Good guide for beginners to intermediates. Pictures help with stimulating memory to recall moves during training, but inevitably nothing is better than a good teacher and mat time.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A fantastic book in a great series
Comment: This series is an essential addition to your Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu library, if you don't own it you should.
Customer Rating:
Summary: No Index
Comment: This book could have been great. The information is well written and well laid out.
BUT:
IT DOESNT HAVE AN INDEX! What was the author thinking when he wrote an "Encyclopedia" and didnt include an index????
It also doesnt name the techniques, so imagine a class where you are discussing "Technique number 37" this does not lend itself to learning or teaching.
Frustrating to read
