Good but make it longer
Any book on Tomiki aikido by sensei Fumiaki Shishida and sensei Tetsuro Nariyama has got to be good, my gripe is that it could have been so much better. It should have been bigger and just covered more. Surely some publisher out there will let authors of this standing write the equivalent of Karate's "This is Karate". They nearly did with the Crane's "Aikido in Training".

If you do Tomiki Aikido and you want a book on the subject get this one. If you don't do Tomiki's aikido and want a book on Aikido you may find the ideas contained here stimulate thought and the many photographs show very high class technique and not just by uke! Pity they are not BIGGER.
