There is very little history and background in the book, it does mention Tai Chi and Pa Kua but not much is said (A Shao-lin Do Association Manual, or Chinese Shao-lin Center manual has more info, depending on which empire you belong too).
Its mainly a book of drawings of 2 people going thru Chin Na, Ippons, and Techniques.
