Good for those new to the Sport and Art of Judo

Shows the basic Judo moves and techniques in an east to follow format. Starting with how to fall properly to basic and intermediate throws and counter throws. I would recommend this book to people new to Judo and high school/college wrestling, due to it's simplicity and to-the-point photos and movement explainations.

Good pictures and helpful pointers

The beginning and intermediate Judo student will be pleased with book. It is a good introduction to the major Judo techniques, starting with the basics such as falling and unbalancing you opponent, and then introducing a number of the more common techniques (throws, sweeps, chokes, and holds). Each technique is accompanied by a number of pictures showing the progression of the moves (including different variations) as well as good explanatory text.There is good reason that this book has had 48 printings!

A good catalogue of Judo techniques.

This book is an excellent catalogue of Judo techniques with clear photographs showing the different stages of the techniques. I highly suggest buying it.
