Customer Rating:      Summary: Easy Reading Comment: I joined my two teenage sons couple of months ago in Aikido and find it fasinating. Being a beginner to the art, the book has provided a good insight into the technique. We read it again and again and you will certainly find this a useful guide for beginner.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Very Useful as a Refresher Text Comment: This is a fantastic book to supplement your class learning. Author John Lichen has taken care to minimize the wear of hakamas in the illustrations and this really makes it easier to study the positioning and movement of the feet in the techniques described. This book is one of the better technique manuals out there and would be of interest to more than the Aikido student. If you study classical jiu-jitsu or hapkido/kuk sool/hwa-rang-do, you'll find value as well.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A very nice approach... Comment: This book is designed as a textbook for PhysEd students. It is laid out in a very logical fashion, and discusses core principles and basic techniques in considerable detail. A brief history on the development of Aikido is also included. The book is profusely illustrated with line drawings.
