Bruce Lee was a man of startling contradictions. His creation of Jeet Kune Do - his own personal expression of the martial arts - firmly established him as a master. This book is an analysis and an appreciation of the man who truly became a legend in his own time; a warrior whose every thought, word, and action was aimed toward a more perfect combination of philosophy and the art of fighting. Here is all that is known of the innermost secrets of the incomparable combatant, Bruce Lee; a man who dared to transcend the ancient disciplines and shape them into his own image. The Wisdom of Bruce Lee was one of the first books to present Bruce Lee's philosophy on life and the martial arts. Written by Roger Hutchinson and Felix Dennis in 1976, The Wisdom of Bruce Lee was never published in the UK, despite a direct marketing strategy in the famous Kung-Fu Monthly poster magazine. As part of the Kung-Fu Monthly Archive Series, The Wisdom of Bruce Lee is published for the first time in the UK with a history of the book and an exclusive interview with the original author, Roger Hutchinson.
