The best and most comprehensive guide to learning jiu-jitsu, this study describes the authentic form of judo developed in the late nineteenth century by Professor Jiguro Kano. The complete system of 160 holds and throws is clearly explained, with 487 photographs and four charts providing further clarification of pressure points, balance, falling, and every other important aspect. The first section presents 60 "tricks" of combat; in part two, readers learn how to apply the advantages of the tricks they've learned. The third section deals with the tricks of combat by which an opponent may be incapacitated and the methods of kuatsu, or resuscitation, by which an opponent may be revived. Unabridged republication of the classic 1905 edition.
