good introduction to karate

This books is a good introduction to karate basics for the beginner. The author discusses: * the main blocks, punches and kicks * how to choose a karate teacher and dojo (the training place) * the grading system (the karate belts) * what to expect during your dojo training The book is well-written, clear and well-organized. The information is appropriate for someone thinking about doing karate, and someone who has recently started karate. Someone who has practiced karate for more than a few months would already know this information.
