Gives an excellent overview of modern Aikido

I find this to be an excellent overview of the modern Aikido world. The author presents a very even-handed review of the major "styles" of Aikido that would help someone decide which path appeals to them. I wish I'd had this as a source many years ago! P.S. This book is mainly text and is not a picture gallery or a step-by-step technique walk-through.
