The author, who has practiced T'ai Chi for thirty-five years and taught it in New York Citiy; Dublin, New Hampshire; and Boston, supplements discussions based on his own experience with his own translations of the classic writings about T'ai Chi and the famous commentaries on those writings. Althought the emphasis in this book is on T'ai Chi as a way to achieve health and peace of mind, the 'practical' use of the art as a means of self-defense are fully explained.
