Description
The real Bruce Lee – his life and philosophy – are revealed in this updated biography, Fighting Spirit.
Bruce Thomas has written a complete account not only of Lee’s life, but of the fighting philosophy he developed (jeek kune do) which made him the greatest exponent of martial arts in modern times. In this updated edition he reassesses Lee’s skills and explores the increasing influences of his insights. He also compares Bruce Lee with that other great fighting spirit, Muhammad Ali, by asking: what would have happened if the two men had ever met in combat? Insightful and authoritative, Fighting Spirit is the extraordinary story of a man whose achievements have never been surpassed.
