Shin Gi Tai provides a fine survey of karate-do training methods that
have gone by the wayside in traditional karate training today,
offering a survey of mind-body techniques and how to develop both for
maximum benefit. Chapters go beyond the usual philosophy and technique
of karate that so many competing titles focus upon to address the
entirety of the discipline and its mental and physical aspects. Any
serious karate trainee needs this!
