 I really liked this book. September 21, 2005
The book is a very pleasing read. This happens to be the first time I've ever written a review on a book. If your looking for something different, give this book a try. I'm not even going to begin to explain what the book is about. You have to read it. I wonder if the few negative reviewers even read it.
I greatly enjoyed this book! August 23, 2005
I have read many books on this subject and this book rates right up there with the best of them. Behrens has a way of drawing you into the subject matter. This book however is not for everyone. Many will not understand it. But that's ok because there are millions of books out there. For those who have an open mind and a love for the martial arts, I recommend this book.
Excellent Book.... July 13, 2005

This book has actually changed my life. I know that sounds a bit heavy, but it's true. So many questions answered. This book is not for the beginner. It is a very deep spiritual journey into what martial arts should be. Not what it has become.

I read this book and to be honest I didn't know what to make of it. I found it to be very interesting and wanted to learn more. But how? I then found, to my surprise, one of Master Behrens students operating a dojo in my home town of Indianapolis. This was the finest dojo and instruction I have even been exposed to. I only was able to train there for a short while because of personal problems but if the teacher in Indy is any representation of Master Behrens, Im sure Master Behrens is as good as the book states.

I don't know what this guys problem is. Is it martial arts that makes him feel good, or is it his obsessive blabbering about how great he is. the word conceded doesn't do it justice. I couldn't find one usefull fact in this book. A lot of hot air and Pseudo-Philosophical nonsense. He has no idea what he's talking about but he act like he does. He takes other's ideas and tweaks them a hair and thinks that he's just invented the wheel. I think everyone whose been burned by buying this book should chip in to buy him a wheel barrow so he can cart along that huge ego of his.Read Bruce Lee: Words from a Master, you can get a used copy for a buck and is worth a million times more. Don't waste you like I did. Doesn't even make a good coaster to put your drink on.
