On the Warrior’s Path connects the martial arts with this larger perspective, merging subtle philosophies with no-holds-barred competition, Nietzsche with Bruce Lee, radical Taoism and Buddhism with the Star Wars Trilogy, traditional martial arts with basketball and American Indian culture. At the center of all these phenomena is the warrior. Though this archetype seems to manifest contradictory values, author Daniele Bolelli describes the heart of this tension: how the training of martial technique leads to a renunciation of violence, and how overcoming fear leads to a unique freedom.

Famous three-time Grand Slam winner Arthur Ashe pointed out that many in sports fall victim to “paralysis by analysis”. Athletes on any level can experience the pain of overthinking and sabotaging their performance. Blame many traditional methods of teaching and training. How can we train smarter, not harder? If only our body and mind could perform in a way that’s more natural and instinctive. The best athletes have this quality, but many feel it is simply unattainable for them. I assure you it is not.

In the Chinese calendar, 1964 was the Year of the Green Dragon. It would be a challenging and eventful year for Bruce Lee. He would broadcast his dissenting view before the first great international martial arts gathering and then defend it by facing down Chinatown's young ace kung fu practitioner in a legendary behind-closed-doors, high-noon-style showdown. The Year of the Green Dragon saw the dawn of martial arts in America and the rise of an icon.

Every age and social strata has its bad eggs, rule-breakers, and nose-thumbers. As acclaimed popular historian and author of How to Be a Victorian Ruth Goodman reveals in her madcap chronicle, Elizabethan England was particularly rank with troublemakers, from snooty needlers who took aim with a cutting "thee" to lowbrow drunkards with revolting table manners. Goodman draws on advice manuals, court cases, and sermons to offer this colorfully crude portrait of offenses most foul.

FASCINATING & ENPOWERING
This Author does a thorough job in introducing reader to the fascinating ancient history & origins of various Martial Arts. I was enlightened to a plethora of facts including Karate being used by Ancient Samaria Warriors & how it was still used to train military forces, 2,000 years later.
Part 2 was an amazing hands-on lesson in the basics of Taekwondo & Jujitsu. Here, the Author narrows his scope to training & execution details including stretching, exercise, nutrition as well as proper stances with powerful attack & defense techniques.
This book successfully leads you through the unique world of Martial Arts. It delivers valuable information & core skills needed for mental focus, physical stamina & self-defense.
Well done.

Helpful for beginners
I actually grabbed this for my son. He has been begging to try karate or something along those lines for awhile now. I'm not against it, but he has a busy schedule and I wanted to make sure the interest stuck before committing. It was written for a beginner, so perfect for us. We listened in stages since it is almost 5 hours long. He was able to pick up on a few basic techniques so he got something out of it and asked to listen again...I guess he likes it!
