The Tao of Jeet Kune Do is one of my favorite Bruce Lee books of all time. I have personally owned two copies of this book.

While many were learning rigid katas and breaking boards, Bruce Lee was developing a style of fighting that was unique and worked for him. Actual street fighting techniques that would save his life in the event of a mugging or being attacked. It was this idea of using what was useful and discarding what isn’t that formed the ground work for Jeet Kune Do.
