This definitive, profusely illustrated manual covers the essential elements of the philosophy and practice of Aikido, the Japanese martial art that has been embraced by modern psychology and many Western bodywork therapies. Useful to the beginner and experienced practitioner alike, the book details the traditional methods and techniques of Shirata Rinjiro, of whom John Stevens is a principal student. Noted for the precise execution of a wide range of techniques and an emphasis on Aikido as a spiritual path, Shirata Sensei's teachings exemplify the way of the warrior: superior technical prowess combined with profound spiritual insight. In addition to photographs and descriptions of all the important Aikido techniques, Stevens recounts interesting and lively anecdotes about the history of Aikido and its founder, Ueshiba Morihei, who developed it from a martial art into a spiritual discipline. A biography of Shirata Sensei, complete with his reflections on sixty years of Aikido practice, is also included.

Yamaoka Tesshu - master of kendo, the Japanese art of swordsmanship - was an outstanding figure in the turbulent era that marked the birth of modern Japan.  Unlike Musashi, whose real story is difficult to ascertain, much more reliable information is available on Tesshu, who exemplifies the same spirit of warriorship.  Yet this is the first work in English about this remarkable man.  Tesshu displayed his warriorship in a variety of realms: in a politically volatile era, he arranged for the peaceful transfer of power from the old order to the new; he was a practitioner of kendo, Zen, and calligraphy as ell.  John Stevens tells his story with a masterful blend of insight, knowledge, and perceptive understanding of Oriental culture.  Modern men and women in business and political situations will finf the life of Tesshu applicable to their personal lives, as well as inspirational.
