Title: Not so Hot!
Product review: I have read a few different translations of The Book of Five Rings and I have to say that this one is confusing. It seems obvious that the writer has no real understanding of the ways of the Martial Arts. I really loved The Unfettered mind and was expecting a lot from this book, but it just didn&#65533;t deliver. The concepts are blurred and presented in a shallow non specific manner. There is a lot on religion although Musashi said that he did not use religious ideas in his strategy. In every other translation I have read there is a strong epiphysis on practical martial arts practice, but this one seemed elusive and flighty. I just didn&#65533;t care for it.If you want to read Musashi I recommend the book by Victor Harris, A Book of Five Rings.
