I have a quick little question here:
I'm finally starting next week, and thought that a little textbook might come in handy between practice, to remember the various techniques, stances, and so forth.
But oh, which book?!
I've found three solid ones, but the problem is that they are all pretty much described the same way: "Great for beginners, shows basic techniques". So I'm hoping that maybe someone here have already read some of them, and could give a pointer on to which one is best for the newbie?
(all by Gozo Shioda)

Dynamic Aikido

Any advice would be much appreciated!
