Inner Bushido: Strength Without Conflict

Inner Bushido concisely and assertively challenges many long-held assumptions surrounding Samurai ethics, while offering a practical re-interpretation of the so-called seven virtues of Bushido. Hannon takes a starkly unorthodox approach to exploring this esteemed system of values and offers a refreshing, non-dogmatic, and intellectually honest analysis of the Samurai code of conduct, making it applicable to the daily lives of Western audiences. Readers will surely be surprised at some of Hannon’s contentions that often fly in the face of presumed “virtue.” Not just for martial arts practitioners, this book is for anyone interested in exploring human relations,

ethics, and cultivating true strength without conflict.
