Hello Everyone,
I have not posted in a long time and I hope everyone out there is doing well. Please let me know if I misinterpret or misrepresent any information. I am under the impression that Master Wei authored/co-authored two books. I found a web site that specializes in selling out of print books and there was an 8 Step book listed as being written by Master Wei (and co-authored by another person who I do not know the identity of). The book is all in Chinese (which I hope to get translated). I ordered the book and I am curious to know:
Is the book legit?
Who is the co-author (b. 1949 and wears a Chinese Martial Arts Institute shirt)?
What is the history behind the book?
What do the explainations of the techniques focus on?
It looks like the original book was written in 1972 with the reprint taking place in 2002. The ISBN is 986-7822-09-9. I have attached a picture of the cover as well as pictures of the co-author. I appreciate any help that you can offer. I hope I did not end up buying a soup book that Master Wei sold his likeness to (one day I will learn the language).
