The Encyclopedia of Modern Shuai Jiao provides for the first time in the English language a detailed explanation of all the conceptual and technical terminology. Each of the over 150 entries covering both concepts and techniques include English explanations, Pinyin transliteration and traditional Chinese characters. There is a concise history of modern Shuai Jiao and a discussion of the challenges presented to studies such as these by the nature of Chinese culture and the Chinese language. Finally, the volume provides some rare pictures of Chang Dongsheng practicing the Jī Běn Gōng Zhuāng Gōng T i Bǎo. This is volume one of a continuing project to make authentic Shuai Jiao available to the world.
