Taekwondo, which is Korean for "The way of kicking and punching", is a martial arts style that developed and grew in Korea. In this deadly art, the fighter uses his feet and hands to overcome his opponent in a fight. However, Taekwondo is known around the world for its lethal kicks rather than punches.

In the year 1973, the World Taekwondo Federation was established as the sport's global governing body. Consequently, Taekwondo held its very first World Championships in Seoul, Korea in the same year.
Taekwondo has the honor of being one of the only two martial arts to officially feature in the Olympics. The sport debuted in Seoul in the 1988 Olympic Games as a demonstration. In 2000, Taekwondo officially became a medal sport in the Olympic Games held in Sydney.
This book has many information about the international organisation, general history, medalists of Taekwondo etc.
