Tai Chi Beginning: A Complete Workout Reference for Beginners

Rating:
Summary: an alright book
Review: As a beginner, I don't have a lot of experience at Tai-chi, but I feel this book was useful. However, most of the pictures are taken from the back, and while some have an insert showing the action from the front also, most do not, and it is very frustating trying to guess where his hands are when you can only see the model's back. I feel it is still a good book and may yet be a good giude to learning Tai-chi. In attempting to hold the book flat and open to a page while I practice, I have noticed that the book is falling apart already. It has a textbook price and a pamphlet like binding. For this reason and because the pictures are taken from the back at times, I felt three stars was reasonable.
