4.0 out of 5 stars Solid presentation of useful techniques., January 13, 2000
By A Customer
Photographs are illustrative and techniques are clearly described. Not a tutorial, rather a presentation of 20-30 useful techniques that can be blended into your own program as needed. I felt I got my moneys worth and would recommend this book to a friend.

3.0 out of 5 stars Basic Nunchaku Vol 2, June 17, 2000
By M. A. Ramos (Florida USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This book should be a follow up of Demura first book. This book still covers basics, which it does well. I would recommend this as a basic or intermediate book.
