Jiichi Watanabe, Lindy Avakian、Charles E. Tuttle C･･･

Published four years before Judo became an Olympic sport at the 1964 Tokyo Games, this book is notable for its scientific approach, explaining why techniques work through gravity, balance, and momentum rather than form alone. First edition, 1960 (per colophon). Authored by Jiichi Watanabe (Kodokan 6th Dan) and Lindy Avakian (3rd Dan), with clear physics based diagrams by M. Kuwata. Covers osaekomi-waza, shime-waza, kansetsu-waza, and movement dynamics. Condition: Good Vintage dust jacket worn with chipping and tears; binding tight; pages age-toned, no obvious markings. A desirable early Tuttle title for judo historians and serious practitioners.
