This was the first ‘complete’ publication of the US Krav Maga branch* (see below for debate on the US vs International) and for the most part the first publication that deals with unarmed techniques.

Pros
For those of you currently studying from versions 1 -3 (as I am testing into 3), you’ll find this a helpful study guide. The accompanying photos are large and offer decent detail with a general step by step description of techniques that grow more advanced as you move throughout the book. I would advise it as an excellent supplement (not a replacement) to anyones training – in fact, I’d consider it a foundation for future books of Krav Maga both to inspire from, and learn from their mistakes.

Side Note: You may find discrepancies from the books techniques compared to your school techniques: this is a product of an expansive, living, modern Martial Art. Talk with your instructors, as I did, to find out if these are watered down or improved variations. I’m listing this here, since I consider it neither a pro nor a con.

Cons
The photos would have been better in color; I know, I know, they most likely kept it black and white to lower the cost for their demographic, I am an Art Director after all, but it cheapens the quality of the finished book. I would have easily paid double for the same high resolution photos they have in color; it would have added a unique dimension to the book that lacks in many Martial Arts publications.

You may also find that the quality of writing is fairly watered down (or as I’ve heard some joke, Americanized) compared to the international publications.
Darren Levine’s Complete Krav Maga: The Ultimate Guide to Over 230 Self-Defense and Combative Techniques is the official guidebook of Krav Maga Worldwide(TM), the leading Krav Maga association in the United States. As a 6th degree black belt and chief US instructor of Krav Maga Worldwide and a deputy district attorney with extensive experience training law enforcement professionals, Mr. Levine is extremely well qualified to write a book on Krav Maga.

Krav Maga, which means "contact combat" in Hebrew, is the hand-to-hand combat fighting system of the Israeli Defense Force (IDF). Krav Maga incorporates techniques and methods from various martial arts and other fighting systems, it is not a martial art because it isn’t an art or a sport, but a pragmatic easy-to-learn system for dealing with violent confrontations based on natural, instinctive movements. Unlike most martial arts, Krav Maga does not have elaborate forms or "katas" or fancy moves.The system is defined few simple pragmatic principles, which are the foundations on which the techniques taught in this book are built.

Among these principles are:

>Techniques should include moves based on natural instincts.
>They must address the immediate threat, without trading one danger for another.
>Wherever possible, defend and counterattack simultaneously
>One technique should work in a variety of situations
>Techniques s/b accessible to the average person, not just athletes.
>Techniques must work from a position of disadvantage.
>Training should include realistic scenarios and incorporate stress experienced in real attacks.
