Book Reviews of The Way of the Warrior: The Paradox of the Martial Arts
Book Review: A Good Overview
Summary: 4 Stars
The Way of the Warrior is a good overview of the martial arts. It is a beautiful book with some interesting photographs. This book gives you an introduction the the martial arts throughout the world. It covers the history of the martial arts focusing mainly on the Asian arts, although it does have one small chapter on martial systems in other parts of the world. It contains a pretty complete glossary of martial arts terms and overall is an interesting book.
The Way of the Warrior is well done and would be a good addition to the martial arts library. The photographs alone would make it an interesting coffee table book in the home of the martial artist. It is worth reading.
Bohdi Sanders, author of Warrior Wisdom: Ageless Wisdom for the Modern Warrior
