Book Description
In this book, the authors present karate in its original concept, a martial art borne from the need to survive. Survival against invaders, survival on the battle field, and in most instances, survival in life-and-death struggles. The writers are Dan Ivan and Paul Godshaw, two of the greatest authorities on the subject today. Ivan, for example, has black belts in karate, judo, aikido and kendo. He also took shotokan karate with Sensei Isao Obata. Godshaw, the regional director for the USA AAU program and chief referee for the AAU Karate Program of America, has also trained in many styles, including shotokan, wadoryu, kobudo, goju-ryu, itosu-kai, aikido and, of course, karate.

Book Description
Del Saito Soke has been studying Karate since 1960, and was personally trained by the son of the founder of Shito style (Shito-Ryu) Karate. Kenzo Mabuni, in an almost unheard of move, granted Del Saito permission to develop his own interpretation of Shito-Ryu. Which is why modern students now learn Saito-Ha Shito-Ryu. In Saito-Ha Shito-Ryu Karate-Do for the Modern Warrior, students and teachers have an opportunity to learn both technique and philosophy from a true master of the martial arts.

Book Description
The Way of the Warrior has become a true martial arts classic since its first publication in 1991. The combat techniques of the martial arts of India and the Far East have origins shrouded in mystery and practices protected by traditions of secrecy. In The Way of the Warrior, the world's great masters, experts dedicated to the purest expression of the martial arts, reveal the principles and philosophies that inform their discipline, training, and technique. Richly illustrated in full color and a must-read for any enthusiast, The Way of the Warrior demonstrates the essential paradox of the martial arts-that study of a lethal skill can lead to spiritual enlightenment.

Book Description
This is an analysis of the martial arts as socio-cultural and symbolic phenomena. As Americans search for a sense of purpose, belonging, and structure in life, they have chosen an Asian cultural tradition and changed it to suit the needs of contemporary American society. A brief historical summary of the development of martial arts in Japan sets the scene for the reinterpretation of the role of these arts by American mass media. Donohue, an anthropologist with a black belt in karate, explores the important role that the martial arts play in the American psyche. As a means of developing personal power, self-defense systems are aesthetic and spiritual practices as well as statements of urban paranoia reacting against street violence and life-threatening situations. Martial arts organizations are seen as symbolic vehicles for enmeshing participants in constellations of actions and philosophies that create a sense of self and community.

Book Description
"The Warrior" Endorsement "The Warrior" brought back many memories of the past in my life and some current day battles I still face. As a former UFC and Pride fighter I faced many of the same ridicule and resistance from the "Religious" community and personal friends. People would ask me daily how I could be a Christian yet get into a cage and battle. The sport then still banned on Network television and the political resistance of it becoming a mainstream sport made acceptance difficult. This book helps explain how God uses his followers in all areas and aspects of life not just in Church. I have always thought I was used to spread the glory of Jesus and had a captive audience every time I fought. It was an opportunity to spread the Love of Christ in what could be a dark place. A chance to give God the glory for my victory's when the microphone was handed to me, and quote a scripture verse pointing my finger at Jesus and not myself. Physical Sports such as MMA are no different than going to school as a teacher. It's an opportunity to give God the glory, and profess your love for an awesome God. "The Warrior" is one more way we as believers can help others have the piece that we all need. I highly recommend this book to all!" Ron Waterman, first WEC super heavyweight champion and former UFC, WWE, Pancrase and Pride Fighting Championship professional fighter. Ron is the Author of "Tapped Out by Jesus" from the cage to the cross.
