Amazon.com Review
To watch Bruce Lee on film is an amazing experience. Those who have read Tao of Jeet Kune Do, however, know that Lee's prose can also be exhilarating. This praiseworthy and enduring bestseller (mainly written over six months when Lee was bedridden with back problems) compiles philisophical aphorisms, explanations on technique, and sketches by the master himself.
Product Description
This is Bruce Lees treatise on his martial art, jeet kune do. This international best seller includes the philosophy of jeet kune do, mental and physical training, martial qualities, attack, and strategy. BEST SELLER!

 best of the best JKD book October 3, 2008
Siju Bruce Lee the legendary martial artist and philosopher on his first and only treatised on the art he created, the jeet kune do. there were many very good books in JKD but this is the best of the best and it is written by the originator. Siju Bruce Lee was the first international recognized martial artist who was very vocal on what are the real things happen in unarmed self defense. He is the one who said what is really working in real situation and what is not as you will learned on this book. many martial arts experts are saying that our system is the best, but Siju tells us that there is no best system of martial art but only a better practitioner, as we seen on MMA fighting and many different self defense system. unfortunately Siju Bruce Lee died on early age before his philisophies were international recognized and accepted. If u want to learned what really JKD is all about, this is the book to be studied and because this book lacks pictures on how the tecniques have been done, many so called JKD practitioner used the name JKD just to promote their art and interpretation on what the book actually teached. this book is like a "BIBLE" of unarmed fighting, you will learned through your own understanding and interpretation on the written techniques and philosophies of unarmed combat. a 5 star rating (or is there any more higher than 5?)were given for the great SIJU BRUCE LEE.
 Very technical. Simply for a dedicated martial artist July 28, 2008

Complicated but good for a dedicated martial artist looking to learn the ways of Jeet Kune Do. I bought this book looking for a less complex look into Bruce Lee's style. If you are not a practicing martial artist, then you wont get far into this book without being overwhelmed with diagrams.
Great Reference Material May 18, 2008
This book gives the thinking and philosphy behind Bruce Lee's fighting method of Jeet Kung Do. I enjoyed it a lot and it would be a good collection for any marital arts books or philosphy in general.
Experience a life you never had before March 31, 2008
It is a must have if you participate in any martial arts! This book not only helps with improving as a martial artist but also brings awareness in understanding oneself better.
