KARATE
IDEALS
By Randall G. Hassell
Karate is not only a means of self-defense; it is also a sport
and philosophy, “a way of Life.” This book examines
each of these aspects and explains why educators and parents
are becoming interested in karate as an educational tool. This
book draws on the vast knowledge and skill of one of the foremost
Karate masters in the world, Randall Hassell.
The author, through a series of chapters, focuses on different
philosophical themes, explaining many of the fundamental principles
and telling how Karate can change the lives of those who practice
it—giving them health, self-confidence, and both physical
and mental discipline. This book will be one of the more sought-after
works in decades to come; it adds insight for those karate practitioners
interested in the philosophies of Budo and how they apply to
the art of the “empty hand.” It is a quiet but powerful
work that is one of the best ever written about the philosophical
aspects of Karate.
