Wado Ryu Karate/Jujutsu is the third book by master martial arts
instructor, Mark Edward Cody. This volume explores the origins,
techniques and kata of one of Japan's most traditional martial
arts. This is the first book to examine all seventeen kata of the
system and is one of the few existing texts written by a native
English speaker. Unlike other works on the subject, kata movement
is explained in precise detail. The reader is given clear,
systematic instruction in the direction, execution and technique of
kata movement. Cody chronicles the traditions of Wado Ryu in light
of the necessity for innovation and combat effectiveness in the
propagation and evolution of ancient fighting systems. Wado Ryu
Karate/Jujutsu embodies the ancient martial principle to "Absorb
that which is useful." Hironori Ohtsuka created the Wado system by
blending the best aspects of Shotokan Karate with Shindo Yoshin Ryu
Jujutsu. Following the Founder's example, Cody draws upon his
knowledge of Filipino Combat Systems and other arts in his analysis
of this Traditional Japanese Fighting Art.

..".You thought that we actually take the rules seriously? No
way, not in the world of fear and compromise that we rattle around
in. ... Rules and principals are useful to us, just like great
teeth, a pretty face and a mouth full of promises are useful to a
politician... Lawyers are concerned with results, judges are
concerned with clearing cases from their dockets, and cities are
concerned with image. Principles like what's right and what's wrong
often take a back seat to those priorities. Alex Zouzoulas,
Courtroom Confidential

Filipino Combat Systems chronicles the creation, evolution and core
concepts of one of the fastest growing martial arts in the world.
It overcomes the shortcomings inherent in martial art instruction
manuals by focusing not on technique, but on the strategy and
philosophy of movement behind the technique. Written by a first
generation student under the authority and supervision of the
system's Founder and Grand Master, this work is an excellent
introduction to the system. FCS is one of the most practical combat
oriented martial systems in existence, bridging the gap between the
ancient fighting arts and the modern world.
