Description

Thomas Cleary shows how well-known attributes such as the reserve and mystery of formal Japanese behaviour are deeply rooted in the ancient strategies of the traditional arts of war. Citing original Japanese sources that are popular among Japanese readers today, he reveals the hidden forces behind Japanese attitudes and conduct in political, business, social, and personal life.
