Kurzbeschreibung
Over 1,200 photographs show every step, from the first forms you'll master to the intricate techniques that display the ultimate in the art of Taekwondo-- which will be an official Olympic sport for the first time, in the 2000 Sydney games. Plus, it's endorsed by the World Taekwondo Federation (Taekwondo's only recognized international governing body), and co-authored by the head coach of the U.S. Taekwondo team. Here are background notes on Taekwondo's history, philosophy, and symbols, as well as coverage on breaking, sparring, and competition-- including officiating guidelines, contestant qualifications, and more. It's sure to be the major book on Taekwondo!

After a several years break I restarted in taekwondo and thought buying a comprehensive book on techniques and forms would be a good idea. Unfortunately I decided on Modern Taekwondo. If you are going for forms it is great, but regarding techniques it is rather poor.
The descriptions that come with the pictures (only one per technique!) are sometimes hard to follow or simply not sufficient. What makes a technique powerful or which pitfalls to avoid is not even mentioned. Ever seen somebody performing a high ap chagi (front snap kick) striking with the top of the foot instead of the ball? If you want to, have a look at Gaetane Ricke (Soon Man Lee doesn't). Since this book is WTF endorsed it is surprising that it has only a very short chapter about sparring.
I would recommend Taekwondo: The state of the art, which is much more complete and really state of the art.

Format:Taschenbuch
This book is somewhat less comprehensive than Taekwondo The State of the Art, but is an excellent book in its own right, particularly for its display of poomse, not only the Taeguk series, but also 2 Kibon, 8 Palgwe and 9 black belt patterns . The authors use 208 of their pages for Poomse, which are well photographed with foot diagram illustrations. It's the only English language edition I've seen with the Palgwe and black belt patterns shown.
Interestingly, Gaetane Ricke was born in Canada although she received her higher education in the US.
With the heavy concentration on patterns, this book is suitable for all Taekwondoists including black belt students, since it not only shows the black belt patterns very effectively, but also discusses the philosophy that underlies them. In fact, the authors present the 8 Kwae bar symbols that surround the Taeguk and discuss them in a paragraph as part of the presentation of each of the Taeguk poomse. For students who intend to proceed in TKD, this is important information and makes for a richer learning experience. As a person with acting training, I understand the importance of images and sub text to support action.
As with most TKD books, the photographs only show end or beginning positions and the discussion does not go far enough to help the beginning student understand the nature of the transitions. Supplemented with good teaching by a qualified master, such as my own, Master Sang Ho Seung, the book supports TKD very well. And I think that is the intention of the authors.
The large font size used in this book makes for an easily readable text for all ages. The use of Korean terminology is limited. Only the number and names of patterns have the Korean name shown. However, many other sources including your TKD master are available for this.
What pleases me here is the quantum leap in the quality of this book relative to many of the other books on the market about TKD. I've been exposed to a number that are poorly written, if well intentioned, with awful proofing for English spelling and grammar errors.
Any young Taekwondoist nearing black belt would be well advised to add this book to his or her library. I believe that you will refer to it repeatedly, especially to refresh your memory on fine points in the Palgwe and Taeguk patterns.
Format:Taschenbuch
It is a very informative book about TKD as it shows how to do most of tae kwon do's forms. Only that the layout of the photos can get confusing, and they aren't just lookg at photo and do the form kind of thing. It's more like read the words and look at the photos for reference, but it's still good. The problem is that the technique of the people doing the forms aren't that good, as they could've done better with their skill a little bit, but it's hard to do that and make it look real.
