Master Cheng's New Method of Taichi Ch'uan Self-Cultivation Reviews
-
The original Chinese version (not this particular translation) is one of the best sources for understanding the art of Tai Chi Chuan in the world.
Hennessey's translation seems o.k.—I'm just a beginner and couldn't comment on the nuances—but the photos, diagrams, and format of the book have a poor layout.
