From the Back Cover
The martial arts, among today's most exciting exercise regimes, have become some of the most popular ways to keep fit and stay in shape. Judo, which involves both groundwork and grappling methods, is both a fun sport and a formidable fighting art, and has been an Olympic discipline since the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome.
Judo is a full-color guide that explains vital basic techniques as well as more advanced skills. Its modern design, accessible layout, and information-packed pages make maximum use of instructional, clear text and superb photography to offer exhaustive coverage of the most important elementary principles of the martial art, such as falling, throwing, and groundwork. Also, specially commissioned high-quality photographs laced throughout the book depict easy-to-follow step-by-step sequences, while close-up details focus on key elements of technique. A separate section is devoted to effective self-defense through the use of tried and tested judo techniques.
