This book, though dated by the artwork and photos, is still the standard text on the principles of Judo. This book is well written. They ideas being propogated are easy to understand and the photos and artwork complment the theories being discussed.

All the basic moves are covered and one could read this book and enter a dojo with an understanding on what his or her sensei is trying to teach. Even seasoned martial artists can refernce this text on an occasion as we often forget ideas ourselves. Highly recommended.
