    The Way Of Aikido
  

*by S***O on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 March 2008*

'The Way of Aikido' is an excellent book for those who wish to intergrate lessons learnt in the dojo into everyday life.  I don't agree with other reviewers here who suggest it is a good place to learn about Aikido.  Don't get me wrong, this book is excellent and looks at ways of utilising Aikido philosophy and ideas into your day to day living, but there are better books for those with no Aikido knowledge and who are curious about learning more.  ('Aikido and the dynamic sphere' by Oscar Ratti is particularly good, with plenty of background information, and a great many diagrams of techniques.)  This book looks at many of the authors experiences in martial arts and how he has applied the lessons learnt there to various life situations.  The writing is clear and easy to read and the exercises suggested seem well thought out and will provide sound benefits for martial arts and non-martial artists alike.  The author comes across as a touch 'new age-y' at times, but not excessively so and there is a definite American bent to the text.  Overall I found it to be an inspiring and fascinating read and I'd suggest it for anyone who wants to learn some great life lessons in a simple, non-patronising way.Feel free to check out my blog which can be found on my profile page.

I knew nothing about Aikido (and still know very little) but this book inspired me, and I don't often say that.
