Materia Medica for Martial Artists

This is a superb resource for those seek the knowledge of how herbs work in Dit Da Jow. When you look at "definitive" resource books by Bensky et al and the book by Chen and Chen, you have to tease out the workings of the herbs when used as an external application. Those books concentrate on how herbs work when taken internally. Josh Walker's book only covers herbs that are of interest to martial artist. I found it to be an excellent addition to the Bensky and Chen/Chen books and if you are only interested in herbs that are of use in Jows etc, this book is all you would need.

Very concise and informative source of knowledge on TCM herbs.

Excellent book for Martial Artists who wish to learn some of the healing arts and formulas used for training

This is yhe must have for Chinese Herbologists and Martial Artist to treat any condition. I recommended 100%.

The book is giving no clear guidence on how to use the information elustrated and it is missing in refrencess non the less it is intresting starting point for studing the field of herbs bu the correlation to amartial arts are not maintained it is not realy concetrating and structure is missing the fast collection of general knowladge is nice but I expected more
