Default The Art of Learning by Josh Waizkin
I'm very new to both chess and martial arts. I think both at their core are never ending forms of self expression and self improvement. The same could be said for music, painting, or any other art or discipline. I think there may be some things worth reading in the book for martial artists. I'll let you know.

very interesting guy.

There was a few things he said that sounded a little egotistical but I don't know anyone else that's a world famous chess and tai chi champion. I'm looking forward to reading the book.

My friend is reading it, and said its a realy good. Its also a little bit of a reminder to things that we allready know, from what he was telling me, but thats still good as well.

Haven't read his book, but I'd gotten my chess-skills up a few notches with his teaching contribution to the Chessmaster 10th Edition game.

Really? I had no idea a new game is on its way. I thought "Art of learning" was a new book or something.

It's a book. But the new Chessmaster has some art of learning stuff in it. Josh Waizskin has been with chessmaster for a while now. His tutorials in the previous chessmasters have been very helpful.
