Erm. I suppose so; but, I guess, the thing is that Kit Summers doesn't go on about how good at teaching you his book is, whereas Dave Finnigan does. And whilst I suspect that Finnigan may well be excellent at teaching people in person, The Complete Juggler smacks of being simply him transcribing his method for teaching to a book -- and it just doesn't work. Summers' does, at least, give the impression of having been written to learn from as a book, rather than as a method of teaching. If you see what I mean. -- Daniel Mitchell = ke94002@black.ox.ac.uk = skinny bi lycra-clad furry juggler
