Maestro Peter Urban has created yet another masterpiece the Karate Sensei originally named Karate Pshycology. The book is exceptional and is one of the very few books Sensei Urban took great pride in as this was his way of teaching his life philosophy which was unique and invaluable. Filled with short stories about the people he met in life that changed his life but yet he encripted their names so that only those who really new him would understand. As an example Beatrice was his teacher Richard Kim.
