About this product

Product Information

From the "chop-sockey" kung-fu epics on the big screen to practices like tae kwon do at local community centers, the martial arts have become a major phenomenon in Western culture. InOn the Warrior's Path, author Daniele Bolelli examines the central figure in this trend: the warrior. Bolelli, himself a martial artist, looks at every facet of the warrior lifestyle, from the unbreakable tenacity of the Japanese swordsman to the contemplative practices of the mysterious warrior monks of China. Drawing from both classical and popular sources of warrior culture, Bolelli shows what it takes to inhabit this singular role, along the way making surprising connections between martial arts and psychedelic culture, basketball, American Indian society, surfing, Star Wars, and more.

  • Excellent for non martial arts folks as well

    This is an extremely entertaining book that catches the reader of martial material totally off guard. Rather than discuss the subject in a quasi religious tone, the author writes with a keen insight that is very objective and at times critical of some of the silliness in martial arts.

It is also an excellent book for individuals who want to understand the motivation of a ...
