The Book of Five Rings
by Miyamoto Musashi
The bestselling Japanese classic of conflict and strategy.
Since the publication of its first English translation in 1974, The Book of Five
Rings has become an underground classic in the American business community, where it is
studied as a text on Japanese management techniques.
Here are timeless principles of craft, skill, timing,
and spirit from a great samurai warrior - plus background on Zen, Bushido,
Heiho,
and Musashi's life. The latest translation of this classic Japanese work of
conflict and strategy, originally written in 1643 by a renowned samurai, offers insight
into the Japanese approach to business. A must-own for the businessperson
& martial artist. If you are in business or martial arts, this
classic isn't just a must-read, it's a must- read- at- least- once- a- year.
The
text itself is short - it could feasibly be read in one or two sittings - but you won't
want to read it that fast. In those short paragraphs Musashi has packed so much
wisdom that it'll take you years to really absorb it. You'll be a better person for
having read it.
