Karate is a martial art that focuses on the application of strikes using predominantly the hands & feet. It originated in Japan & has become popular throughout the world. There are many styles of karate but the most widely practised outside of Japan is Shotokan Karate. Training in karate is normally divided into three sections: the basic technique; kata or sequencing of techniques to imaginary opponents; & kumite the sparring done with an opponent. Gradings are the exams needed to be passed to progress on to the next level. Around three months is needed to progress through each grading. There are typically three or four gradings per year each with a syllabus. In total there are 10 gradings to be passed in order to get a black belt
- this on average takes a student 4 years to attain. This book would cover all the training needed to attain a black belt.

Following the success of his first book The Shotokan Karate Handbook -- Beginner to Black Belt the author felt there was a need for a manual to assist the more experienced student. Therefore he has concentrated on more advanced techniques such as Kihon lppon Kumite Jiyu lppon Kumite sets 6 & 7 & all the remaining Katas in Shotokan Karate. It is important that Karate Ka are aware that time effort & practice are still the main factors in working towards perfecting not only ones skills but also ones inner mind & attitudes towards the art. This book is meant as a guide to Karate Ka -- it cannot take the place of your Sensei (teacher). ...

Written in an easy to follow manner & supplemented by an extremely comprehensive set of photographs this handbook is easily one of the more superior publications available. ...

A handsomely illustrated photographic account by the bestselling author of ' Tommy' of the human experience of war as directly witnessed by British soldiers in the First World War. Richard Holmes one of Britain's best-known military historians (and President of the British Commission of Military History) has selected over 200 photographs taken for the most part by officers & men rather than by official photographers -- mostly unfamiliar ones located in archive collections regimental museums & private sources. The book will deal with the whole of the British Army's experience of the First World War -- Gallipoli Mesopotamia & so on -- & not just on the Western Front. The photographs will be grouped thematically as extended picture essays; topics include the pre-war army & mobilisation of 1914; the contribution made by nurses; medical treatment & the wounded; infantrymen & their weapons; the campaign in Mesopotamia & more. Like ' Tommy' the book is about people rather than things about the human experience of war rather than its strategy or tactics & at least as much about the everyday or commonplace -- a latrine here or a plate of bully beef there -- as about the lofty or portentous. It shows us the dirt beneath the fingernails of history. ...
