This is the book that explains all the principles covered in Volumes 1 and 2 of the Book of Martial Power Video Series
The Book of Martial Power presents and explains nearly 80 martial principles. Through these principles, Steven Pearlman guides the reader to a deeper understanding of how the martial arts--all martial arts--work.
"Now and then through the years, someone arises and sets the example for us to admire and refresh our desire to train harder and deeper in body, mind, and spirit. Steve Pearlman has something for us all to think about. How he ties together much of what we have seen, felt, and grown from is noteworthy and enjoyable."
--Kyoshi Joe Mansfield, 8th Dan, Oyata Shin Shu Ho Ryu and Ryute Renmei
"The author's understanding, translation, and depiction of the most finite elements that are all a part of the martial arts phenomena are represented here in Steven Pearlman's outstanding thesis: a must-read for all martial artists."
--Shihan Gary Alexander, 10th Dan Combat Isshin Ryu, Founder International Association of Martial Artists
