Martial Arts Are Not Just for Kicking Butt: An Anthology of New Writings on Martial Arts

Summary: The title is wrong.
Review: (...) Discipline, peace, strength, and courage is not the way to achieve good figthing skills.

The bible teaches these virtues.

Well, since not many people visit this book site on amazon, I guess I won't get very many negative comments.

But anyway, train hard in your art, avoid mystic practices(like staring at objects), and live the life.
