Aikido—a modern Japanese martial art unique in its synthesis of classic forms with a well-defined spiritual base — offers a key to the art of living naturally and unselfishly in a complicated world. This book explains it in reference to the founder's philosophy of mind — and action. In addition, the history of aikido's prewar development as a noncompetitive new martial art is described in the context of its international role.
