Format:Taschenbuch
Die "rechte Führhand" aus Bruce Lee´s Jeet Kune Do, komplett analysiert und dargestellt von Teri Tom, einer Privatschülerin von Ted Wong (Bruce Lee´s orginal Schüler). Dieses Buch ist gut, denn es zeigt wirklich alles was man über die rechte Führhand wissen sollte. Aber das interessanteste daran ist die Benutzung der Passagen von den Büchern aus Bruce Lee´s eigener Bibliothek. Man sieht wie Bruce Lee zu seinen Konzepten kam und erfährt viel über seine Quellen. Dazu gehören u.a. die Schriften von Jack Dempsey, Jim Driscoll, Aldo Nadi usw... Ein empfehlenswertes Buchg an alle JKD interessierten auch wenn ein paar Passagen Schüler von der Inosanto Linie etwas verwirren könnten (die Haltung der Führhand, Fuß Positionen..) Ich selber bin von der Inosanto Linie, habe das Buch trotzden durchgearbeitet und fand es sehr hilfreich.

Superb Study of a Fundamental Technique
15. März 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
I find it interesting that Teri Tom had no martial arts experience at all when she found Ted Wong and began to study Jeet Kune do. Teri Tom isn't what the masses have been trained to expect in a martial arts teacher--neither are her methods. That may be why I bought this book. She teaches what ~is~ concerning this important combative building block, what works. That being said, the practical means and methods contained within Tom's book are the foundation of Boxing, kickboxing, Jeet Kune Do, numerous systems of Chinese and Okinawan Karate (Kyokushinkai if we're talking actual competitive combat), and a number of other practical street oriented schools.
The Straight Lead. Fundamental element within virtually every school of boxing in the world, regardless of culture. This is a very technical treatis on a foundation technique contained in virtually every form of fistic art known to man. Within this volume you'll discover a history of fighters (generally Western boxers) who were known for controlling matches by their application of the straight lead, as well as the connection between the straight lead and fencing, how Bruce Lee became enamored of this technique and came to include it in the core of his jeet kune do curriculum, and more.
The explanation of stances and footwork going beyond the usual (yawn) basic fare. You don't have to ask why, Teri Tom explains the physics of the technique and how variations in stance, balance, and body shifting can influence the application of the straight lead. Also included are drills for speed and timing, bag work, combining with other techniques. I like the fact that there are plenty of photographs to clearly get the concepts across, while the writen descriptions leave no room for doubts. The whole work flows well and is put together in a logical and understandable way. You most certainly do not have to be a Jeet Kune Do afficianado to understand this book. I believe it will be of assistance to any person with a mind for understanding mechanics or the technical side of martial arts practice.

This book is endorsed by The Bruce Lee Foundation !!
20. Januar 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
Hmm, this is a book endorsed by the Bruce Lee Foundation with a beautiful foreword from Bruce Lee's daughter. The author had access to Bruce Lee's own boxing and fencing books with his notes written in the margins. The Straight Lead also tells you exactly where Lee got all of his JKD influences, to the page number! I'd say this is about as close as you can get to the source. To this book's detractors, I ask what leg are you standing on?

The Science Of JKD Finally Revealed
14. April 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
I enjoyed reading Teri Tom's book on the Straight Lead. I too had been researching Bruce Lee's sources of his Jeet Kune Do for over 30 years and have kept my findings, discoveries and research to myself. I am glad to see that someone has publicly published a book that has respectfully revealed some of the sources of Bruce Lee's techniques in JKD. Unlike popular belief, Bruce Lee did not take the best of many styles (especially the misconception that Bruce took 27 different arts)to create JKD. To put in bluntly, JKD is a science of martial arts as expressed by the human body. And just as the old Boxing Books helped Bruce Lee understand the Science Of Punching as expressed by the human body, the art that Bruce Lee discovered and eventually called Jeet Kune Do is useful today as it was back in the 1970's. The reason for this is that the art is a Science. And this scientific martial art known as Jeet Kune Do works as well today as it did back then. Unless human beings grow an extra arm or foot, this science can not be ignored. To read Teri Tom's book, will help to understand and appreciate this fact.
Some people may get offended when reading this book because it takes aim at those who counterfeit the art of JKD (Chapter 10). Perhaps this should have been left for another book. But then again, to be politically correct just to sell a book is not something Bruce Lee himself would have done. So you have to give the author credit for telling it like it is, though it won't win any great reviews here in Amazon from those that are teaching the "mixed martial arts" version of JKD.
A book like this should be in every martial artists library, whether you agree with part or all of it's content. If you forget about the politics and just keep an open mind to learn from this book, you will definitely enjoy it. It is sure to be a classic. I can see the martial artist of the future searching for a copy of this book (if it ever goes out of print), just as many people are now searching for books from Jack Dempsey, Jim Driscoll and James Corbett. These authors understood the Science of Punching, and now you have an opportunity to read what they discovered and why Bruce Lee incorporated the Lead Straight Thrust into his Jeet Kune Do. P.S., It is not just a jab, as one reveiwer remarked.
