How many people here have actually read the book? For such a small and simple book you'd think that it wouldn't contain as much info and insight into Systema. Personally I think it is a must read for anyone starting Systema.
One of the parts of the book mentions, "Because students in the Russian Martial Art don't prearrange strikes or repeat them, it soon becomes unimportant what kind of attack they face in the course of training. This has ultimate practicality in the real world."
This is directly at odds with other arts that believe in Kata. What do you think about it? I just thought I would get some conversation going.
