I think this is irrelevant. I mean no offense to Bruce Lee's friends and family when i say that I don't think their opinions really make any difference. The fact is that there is huge confusion today as to what JKD is,what Bruce would be doing with it, who can or can't teach it etc. I get the impression that the name is a big part of the problem and Bruce new that.

I'm not saying that learning from books alone is a good way of learning, of course it isn't. But I definitely don't believe that its worthless. Bruce lee learned a lot from reading relevant books.

Yeah, he did.
Then he went out and tried things out for himself physically, rather than theoretically.
