The Way of Aikido: Life Lessons from an American Sensei

George Leonard

Here is a book about the philosophy of a unique martial art. To understand this philosophy, to begin to live it, is to enter a world completely new. Contexts change, life's unanticipated blows become gifts, attacks lead to reconciliation, discord is transformed into harmony, anxiety and pain are reborn as vital energy. According to author Susan Trott, "The Way of Aikido does no less than open the door to the universe and invite you through to become one with it, become balanced, powerful, energetic, alert, and present. You don't need to be a martial artist to love this book." A selection of the One Spirit Book Club.
