For a used book, this one was literally like new. The seller was prompt and polite. The book arrived in a timely fashion, well-packaged to prevent damage. The contnts of the book are one of the best I have read about horses. Thank you! read full review | report as inappropriate
The buyer of this book was so disappointed and appalled to see that the book was actually printed in China that he has refused to own it, nor to read it, and has returned the book. read full review | report as inappropriate

This is a great book for anyone who wants to learn the fundamentals of mixed martial arts. Its easy to understand and the most complete of its kind out there. I recommend this book to anyone interested in learning this sport. read full review | report as inappropriate
This book is thick - 305 pages and the title should be Octagon, MMA the book of knowledge. In terms of contents, there are the usual guard, side control, mount sections, but it also tries to cover striking, clinch, ground & pound, and fighting in... read full review | report as inappropriate

I teach for a different Krav Maga organisation so read this with some interest. I have to say, most of my own students have this and use it. A good buy, well illustrated and a gtreat effort by Mr Levine et al. If you cant get to an... read full review | report as inappropriate
This is just another text in the continuing propaganda machine for this brand of "Krav Maga" (which is a generic term in Israeli CQB, not really a system), commercialized by self promoted experts, with little or non battlefield experience. read full review | report as inappropriate
Self defense (SD) covers a number of attributes: awareness, avoidance, deescalation, strategy, tactics, techniques, witness building, speaking to law enforcement and the legal system, torts, ad nauseum. This book on Krav Maga doesn't attempt to... read full review | report as inappropriate
Author: Randy Couture - (Paperback) - 2007 ... more
Randy Couture has been one of the poster boys for Mixed Martial Arts competition in recent years - and a good one at that. His words are well thought out, he's articulate, hard-working and talented. A lot is made of his age, as well. However, I... read full review | report as inappropriate

Author: Eddie Bravo - (Paperback) ... more
Eddie's system is freaking awesome! I am an accomplished grappler and have always been interested in new techniques, etc. I was already familiar with the twister and a couple of the setups, but Eddie's book blew me away. My top game is so sick... read full review | report as inappropriate
Author: Lennard Zinn - (Paperback) ... more
Zinn's interest in and experience with bikes and biking is obvious to me when I look over this book or read his tech reports in Velo News (magazine and website). I found the second edition a welcome improvement over the first edition in its... read full review | report as inappropriate
Not enough detailed information. Needs more pictures, more examples. Otherwise the info is good and all aspects of what you need to know are covered. Just be prepared to be frustrated when you can't figure things out by the limited picture... read full review | report as inappropriate
Author: Edmund R. Burke, Ed Pavelka - (Paperback) ... more
This is an excellent reference for long distance riding. Following the information in this book a beginning rider can ride a century, the cyclists' marathon, with no difficulties and few surprises. A good way to start getting involved with long... read full review | report as inappropriate
I am a subscriber to Bicycling magazine. Every month I eagerly open the latest issue and almost without exception am disappointed in the lack of substantial content. Most articles are superficial at best, stating obvious facts and making... read full review | report as inappropriate
I'm on pg 94 and I'm finding this book too general and focused on the long distance racer. The equipment suggestions are summaries, not descriptions or principles. The language level is annoyingly low. I highly recommend Adventure Cycle Touring... read full review | report as inappropriate

A great book. Simple to follow but with great benefits. I would recommend this to anyone, even if they don't have health problems. read full review | report as inappropriate
maybe i am missing something, i believe this to be a bloated-book, could have been more concise. bought it based on other reviews. read full review | report as inappropriate
I don't mean to dampen the enthusiasm other readers have shown. This book is a terrific introduction to the theory and idea of qi and its cultivation and uses. The tone is a bit "New Agey" though, with Stuart Smiley-style affirmations at the end... read full review | report as inappropriate
Author: Sam Sheridan - (Hardcover) ... more
Maybe my favorite book of the last 2 years. The only book I've given out as a gift more than once - to my martial arts teacher, and to a co-worker who appreciates MMA. Highlights for me: Sam writes well. He's simply a clear,... read full review | report as inappropriate
I try really hard to motivate myself in finishing this book - I am about 3/4 into it after one month. For some reason I feel that Sam's aspirations are never quite achieved: a) to be a fighter, not just train to become one and b) write a book... read full review | report as inappropriate
Sam's a diehard adventure seeker and I respect him for getting into the ring. The way he writes, however, is hard to read. There were many run-on sentences that I had to go back and re-read that ruined the flow of the book, which is too bad... read full review | report as inappropriate
