I couldn't find a review. How is this book? I've heard it mentioned several times. I also can't find anywhere that sells it :?

Cheers :wink:

It is recognized as one of the better books on Peek techniques in general but to be honest with you, if you want to work with what most pros use simply learn Acidus Novus and Acidus Globus by Millard Longman (the original peek techniques that most all others are based on) you may also take a look at Docc Hilford's "Dance of Shiva" in that it can be practical (though Alan Zingg's "Jazz Dancing" variations I find to be a bit superior).

Please understand that PEEK PERFORMANCES and its follow-up books (it is part of a trilogy, #3 schedule for release next year) have some sound ideas in them but it can be a bit of a confusing read.

Thanks for teh pointers Craig. Acidus Novus sounds amazing although a little expensive for me at the moment. I will look into your other suggestions though :wink:
