Tao of jeet kune do by bruce lee
It was during his convalescence that he decided to compile a treatise on the system or approach to martial arts that he was developing; he called it Jeet Kune Do. The bulk of these writings would become the core set of writings. Many of these writings were done during a single session which provided natural continuity. Lee had also kept various notes throughout the development of his combat philosophy and these would become the disparate notes used in the book. Many of these notes were sudden inspirations which were incomplete and lacked any kind of a construct. The combination of the core set of writings and the disparate notes would be known as the text Tao of Jeet Kune Do.
In 1971, it was Lees intent to finish the treatise that he started during his convalescence. However, his film career and work prevented him from doing so. He also vacillated about publishing his book as he felt that this work might be used for the wrong purposes. Lees intent in writing the book was to record one mans way of thinking about the martial arts. It was to be a guidebook not a set of instructions or How to manual to learn martial arts.
In 1975, after Bruce Lees death his widow Linda Lee Cadwell decided to make available the information her husband had collected. Lees untimely death changed the perspective of releasing the information that Bruce Lee had vacillated about. The core writings and various notes were put together in a logical fashion by various editors. The main editor was Gilbert L. Johnson. Johnson along with Linda Lee, Dan Inosanto and other students of Bruce Lee helped him understand Jeet Kune Do well enough to editorialize and organize Lees material into text.
The book is dedicated to: The Free, Creative Martial Artist. Lees wife, Linda Lee Cadwell holds the copyright to the book. The book is attributed to Bruce Lee as his notes and work were used to compile the book. It is important to understand that although Lees material was utilized it was not organized by him; therefore Bruce Lee was not strictly its author.
