Good read……Highly Recommended I am not really much of a reader, buy my wife bought me this book on a whim. I have always had an interest in martial arts and took a few classes a few years back. I am thinking about starting again but cant seem to find the time. This book was easy to read and follow and does exactly what it says it is going to do. The author uses real examples to describe how you can bring marital arts values into your life. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve their life whether or not they have an interest in taking martial arts classes.Also, the book has a few short exercises that I found to be very helpful.
