Review:
Lawrence Galante's Tai Chi: The Supreme Ultimate is a comprehensive text that includes a study of the origins and history of Tai Chi, a detailed analysis of its philosophy and relationship to Western philosophy, the I Ching and the Tao te Ching, and to Yoga and Zen. Tai Chi: The Supreme Ultimate also includes information about breathing, health and Chinese medicine, as well as several hundred detailed photographs showing the application of the positions. An excellent bibliography is provided for further reading suggestions. Galante's credentials are impressive as he holds an M. A. in Oriental Philosophy and has been a student and practitioner of the the martial arts for 30 years. Tai Chi: The Supreme Ultimate is an excellent and useful addition to any martial arts reference shelf. -- Midwest Book Review
