Every concept from stance and stroke to cue-stick induced deflection is examined from a technical point of view. Take english as an example concept. English is examined and analyzed in minute detail. There is inside english, outside english, draw english, follow english, running english, and reverse english.

It may sound like the concept of english is a chaotic mess but it all comes together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
