hello Tim or board,
Is there a reliable source in which i can browse and order your(Tims)books?
thanks. rob.
Hi robert,
Unique publications sells some of the books and tapes I've done, North Atlantic Press sells the rest (and some are on Amazon).
Thanks Tim.
lol, i found one, but dont you think $482.o6 is a bit much for one book?
this better be good cuz i just bought it.

If I only would have known, I'd have kept a few copies till now.
I'd be rich I tell you.
Hmmm... I haven't purchased that book yet. But, I will put it on my gift list so my wife will by it for me. It seems that is a used copy. There is a discount if you buy it new.
I bought your "Passing the Guard" book and was very impressed with the layout and clearity of content. It really helped me understand why some things are important to remember in training.
However, I saw a new Passing the Guard volume in the store and it seems you are not one of the authors?
Why? If this was already covered on this board, sorry. I missed it.
I just thought you did such a great job in the first volume... Cheers.
The second volume features Joe Moreira showing his guard passing techniques. I just helped with the edit.
Tim you are famous now!!! I saw that your nei gong book is going for $250 on Amazon!!
And if I got the profits from those books, I'd be rich and famous.
Tim, about the "rich and famous - thing "
The seminarium you´re planning to hold - record it - I think some dollars might find their way to you
Best Regards
Tobias
Good idea Tobias.
just make a couple of DVDs. Make one solely on concepts and principles, like an hour long lecture. I've learned these kind of ideas are of much more value than a demonstration of techniques or movements.
I have two copies of xingyi neigong. I might part with one for $200! Then again maybe I should wait till it goes up some more...
Plum Flower also has some of Tim's stuff.
I want to mention a couple of other books.
Nei Jia Quan, Jess O'Brien ed., North Atlantic Books 2004, is a series of interviews with internal arts teachers. The first one is with Tim, and it's great. It's some of Tim's best writing, although he didn't write it presumably, just spoke it. I haven't read all the chapters yet; the one with William Lewis is very interesting, and there's one with Luo de Xiu.
Some of the others are also talking about qi.
Oh, well. I think it's almost worth it just for Tim's chapter.
The other one is nothing to do with Tim; it's a history book, Chinese Martial Arts Training Manuals, Kennedy and Guo 05, also North Atlantic Books. Very good if you're into the history, and also for understanding the historical and cultural context of some of the martial arts mythology.
