4.0 out of 5 stars one of the best but not yet revised, December 27, 2003

This review is from: Pencak silat: Merentang waktu

this book perhaps one of the best, mr oong describes the long history of Pencak Silat, shows the careful research of mr oong, from his experience as pencak silat athlete and his long study. Tells more about pencak that you may never thought (there's always competition on every sport)including the spiritual sides of this traditional martial arts. also including the interview with the pioneers. But this book needs to be revised immediately, there's a lot of change on Pencak silat today. Some of the text does not match with the reality again, except the history of Pencak silat.

This review is from: Pencak silat: Merentang waktu

This is maybe one of the best books I've read about Pencak Silat.
The items and backgrouds are great resources for people who want to learn about Pencak Silat and his history and filosofy.
It's only availble in native Indonesian language (Bahasa Indonesia) but O'ong told me that there wil be an english version also to be published.
