'On the Back' of Karate-Do

This book is unique on the subject of Karate, in that the author, Tatsuo Suzuki - 7th Dan Karate, the Chief Instructor of the Zen Nippon Karate Renmei and man recognised as the world's expert - explains fully the method of training for everyone, from the beginner to the highest grade of Black Belt, in an original way.
Karate will soon develop to International Status and to such an extent that World Karate Championship matches will amost certainly be held, such matches being based on the fundamental Japanese principles and rules. Subsequently provisions would have to be made for ordered contests as well as free fighting (Jiyu Kumite) and Tatsuo Suzuki provides for this, in that he carefully describes actual fighting, giving more than 900 illustrations and drawings.

He teaches both the training method of Kumite for two persons and that for one student only, with some explanation of the spiritual nature of the exercise.
The author also describes the use of several unarmed defence tactics against a knife attack or an attack by many assailants which he has developed through years of experience.
Finally, because of the importance of Budo a chapter is included which shows the correct approach and the right spirit necessary for a serious student of Karate.
It has been claimed rightly that Karate improves the character, the spirit and the physique. It teaches sincerity and self-control, and is today a physical art, a sport, and a method of self-defence.
