Publisher's Synopsis
The king of all martial arts, judo has a unique place in history.
The Olympics might just have concluded but, for a seasoned judoka, there is no off season; the mats are always open, and techniques always need to be kept sharp. It takes an unimaginable amount of skill, hard work, and sacrifice to make it big in judo; this is why the sportspeople covered in this book should be more widely known, and universally celebrated.
