Covers the brief history of Chinese martial arts, and brings together the wisdom of a Kung Fu grand master with a scientist and teacher to explain the scientific reasons why Kung Fu is the powerful practice that it is. Using the principles of physics, biomechanics and biology, the authors present a deep understanding of how the styles, the specific movements and methods of attack and defence operate.
