    Just got this

    -----------------

    Dear Friends of the MCMAC,

    I am pleased to be able to let you know that the long-awaited Second Edition of my book, 'Look Beyond the Pointing Finger: the Combat Philosophy of Wong Shun Leung' is now about to be published. More than twice the length of the original 2001 edition, it contains much more material about the WSL Method, whilst still retaining the original core section of my late Sifu's wisdom. It is totally up-to-date, incorporating photos from all the recent trips overseas this year, so many of you, both long-time and more recent members of our extended Family will find your images within the pages. The latest word is that we can expect to be able to get holdof copies in December, hopefully just in time for the Xmas stockings

    Hey Chuna Fa,

    As far as I know, the 2nd edition won't be available from Cranes Production until late December. Did you contact them directly? If so let me know and I can chat with them too. I would assume that if the demand is high they will print more copies

    Hey James,
    Let me know when you get some in. I'll probably be looking for at least one copy.

    Is there anywhere in the UK selling this?

    £40+ for a book is fairly steep (including shipping from Crane Productions) but if there is nowhere on this side of the pond then it looks like I'm forking out £40+!

    thanks in advance

    I don't think it is £40+. More like £36+ unless the exchange rate nosedives. The book price is reasonable but the international shipping charge really stings (~£12) - it is over one third of the total cost.

    £42.31 to be exact (including priority shipping)

    The mathematics doesn't add up, Gents - on the current exchange rate, US$34.95 (the cost of the book) is equal to 23pounds.50p....

    i think we was factoring in the priority shipping for another $34

    however it seems to have changed literally overnight to only $26.80 for First Class International Package from around $31 - never mind!

    i should imagine that once i get it, i think its worth every penny

    all the best

    havent even opened it yet - im still working

    thanks guys!

    PS: Merry Christmas, and a happy new year to one and all!
