The Book of Five Rings
im surprised nobody has created a thread on this book. has anyone read it? its by a famous Japanese duelist named Miyamoto Musashi who fought somewhere around 60 duels.

good... if people on here wont talk about it then ill be happy to promote it. if you go here you can read a few samples from the book. But trust me when i say that all of the readings on there are just samples(although the wisdom shouldnt be ignored because of its presented simplicity) the passages in the book itself is at times kind of hard to learn. In the end though, its worth it.

yeah it gives a brief biography of him in it and the duels that he fought. still a lot of the stuff that he wrote in the book is amazing yet so simple and practical. not only has he wrote it for the field but also for everything you'll encounter in life. (i intend to apply it to fighting first then to everyday since its easier to understand that aspect more relevant.)

Read it years ago. I found it to be mostly common sense, though it did have some interesting insights. Obviously, some of it was pretty inaccessible on account of the fact that I'm unlikely to be dueling samurai anytime soon.

I read some of it, it seemed too simple and vague to me...but I suppose the man knows what hes talking about.

Pick it up last Sunday. Just read the intro and according to the guy translating the book it says that Miyamoto Musashi was underfeated!? Wow!
Rather odd thing...I found this book in the Business section. I kept looking in the Biography section and to my surprise the book is actually consider a business book.
