  I made the mistake in buying this book. I thought it was about Filipino Martial Arts….it’s about how a supposedly avid practitioner of the FMA keeps refering to Japanese and Indonesian arts trying to lump everything and anything under FMA. It’s really sad because these so called 10th degree grandmasters let these guys crap all over Filipino Martial Arts and get away with it. It’s not Japanese or Indonesian..it’s Filipino….The author wrote a book with nothing but his own opinion…he probably never been to the Philippines.
  
  Sorry but Sarongs and Kerambits are not Filipino…Guys need a reality check. Stop bastardizing the art! I’m sorry I bought this book and I’m sad that this is how some Filipinos are teaching the art just to make everybody happy and to fatten their wallets!

  It has concepts yes but other than that it doesnt have much.

  It is not a book for those looking to learn the art.

  It does not contain flows or drills.

  I’ve posted a detailed review of the book at[...]. In summary, though, the book is disorganized and presented in an amateurish manner. There’s some good information in there, but it’s too scattered to be useful for a novice and too shallow for an expert. Not recommended.

  I`m very glad from the Amazon`s team reaction for my problem – I didn`t receive my book from the first order may be because lost in transffer.
  
  When I informed Amazon for my problem they immediately reacted giving me a refund and putting second order for the same book, so finally I received it a week earlier they told me!
  
  Thanks a lot for all your efforts for the customer and wish you less problems and more happy clients!
