War strategy is a zero-sum game. He wins who can ably apply his understanding of strategy to enhance his tactics, and his opponent loses. As much as we would like to view it as a book about self-actualization or the achievement of business aims, the Book of Five Rings is primarily a military treatise, written by a man who understood the brutality of war and the necessity to take a fight to the finish. This brief study explains Musashi's famous text with an eye toward the pragmatism of scientific principles, made easy for modern martial arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martina Sprague\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1499527721\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781499527728\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/12\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.16d","brand":"Martina Sprague","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44410708885759,"sku":"9781499527728","price":9.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_abd7bfd0-7e52-4e21-a53f-b69765814e7b.jpg?v=1697537406","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/musashis-book-of-five-rings-martina-sprague-9781499527728","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
