This Koopmans fellow...
The Importance of Bruce Lee Although the book is specifically aimed at a younger market, which comes across clearly in the style of writing, this in no way impedes its accessibility. The Game of Death colouration of the sturdy cover is either a happy accident or an ideal marketing ploy, while the author's view of Bruce Lee comes from outside of the usual fan-based arena these books usually stem from and benefits because of this, with the information presented as concise but impartial. Quotes are lifted from a cross-section of works, primarily from the writings of Linda Lee Cadwell, Bruce Thomas and Tom Bleecker and are well integrated into the main body text. Sidebars focusing and providing more detail on Bruce Lee related issues make for a nice touch, although a section on Brandon Lee's death seems out of place based, as it is on a sensational article from an entertainment periodical. While the book is an agreeable experience, it can't be considered an essential purchase. I could pin this on the fact that for an educational book it isn't entirely free of faults; although the text is factually based there are one or two minor errors that should have been picked up in the editing process. This is just a tiny niggle though and shouldn't deter newcomers from adding it to their collection, especially if their criteria is an easily read introduction to the life of Bruce Lee. Old timers, however, might want to give it a miss, as there's little to sink their teeth into here.
What's up, Lee? Among the several things I liked in the book are all the surprises.No, no, no, not like cake and brownies and presents.But things I didn't know that I found out, such as Bruce Lee's youth gang, the Tigers, a gang that lost a lot of fights.But Lee never admitted defeat.Bruce Lee's love life was the biggest surprise of all.I mean, who would expect his life to be like Romeo and Juliet?He was a dragon in love with girls.In Hong Kong girls adored him but in America it was harder to find girls.Lee, however, was determined.If a girl he liked passed him, he would take off his shirt and beat up one of his bigger students to impress her.I'm eleven years old and the mix of Bruce Lee's fighting and romance reminded me of things I like to hear about. I would recommend The Importance of Bruce Lee to anyone interested in martial arts, Bruce Lee (that one is kind of obvious!), and the life of a movie actor.After reading this book, whenever I push myself to extremes like swimming fourteen laps and biking five miles every day, I think of Bruce Lee.I'm thankful to Andy Koopmans for writing this inspiring biography.I've read biographies before but nothing like this one.I enjoyed this book so much that I'm going to read whatever else I can find written by Andy Koopmans. ...

Editorial Review Product Description Bruce Lee's dream was that one day he would be aninternational superstar. Through his vision and hard work, hisachievements are unparalleled. Bruce Lee revolutionized the martial arts industry and didmore to bring the fighting arts to the general public than any otherperson in the twentieth century. He advanced the martial arts bydaring to question its very principles and foundations. Martial artsschools throughout the world are filled with eager students who havebeen inspired by Lee's fighting style. The martial arts industryexploded with many films that tried to duplicate Bruce'ssuccess. Unfortunately, however, he never saw the full impact of hisaccomplishments. On July 20, 1973, he tragically died at the young ageof 32, only one month before the premiere of his famous film, Enterthe Dragon. His short life is best summed up by a quote fromSt. Augustine: The key to immortality is living a life worthremembering. |
