    Great History

    The book is comprised of three major sections, history, philosophy and technique. I very much enjoyed the historical background. I can recommend the book for this information alone. The philosophy section is OK. If you are only looking for a how-to book, this probably isn't the book for you.

    Traditional Taekwondo: Core Techniques, History and Philosophy

    Most books about taekwondo are either hard to understand given the how-to solution of their approach, or they are just another way of saying the same thing over again. Cook's approach, however, is fresh and much appreciated. I loved his last book and will recommend this one to all my friends who study the martial arts.

    Traditional Taekwondo: Core Techniques, History and Philosophy

    I received a copy of this work from a friend and was once again astounded at the depth and attention Mr. Cook has given the subject of his work. If you think his last book, Taekwondo Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Warrior was good...READ THIS! More history as well as practical applications makes this book a perfect compendium to his last. A must for all serious taekwondo practitioners of all ranks!
