Budovideos.com - The Straight Lead Book by Teri Tom

A key element in the Jeet Kune Do arsenal, the straight punch is a deceptively simple technique that Bruce Lee described as the most difficult move in Jeet Kune Do- "Only one in 10,000 can handle it."

Jeet Kune Do Straight Lead describes the development of the straight punch in Western martial arts and describes Lee's refinement of the technique. It also offers a thorough instruction in the complexity and power of the move-showing martial artists of any discipline how to incorporate this devastating attack into their repertoire.

On the plus side, it's good to have a book that goes so in-depth on a single technique. "The Straight Lead" has entire chapters on things like foot placement and fist allignment. However, there's a strong political tone later in the book, and some of the comparisons with boxing are just plain wrong. Still, a highly recomended book, really can't be beat for the in-depth biomechanical analysis.
