The Art of Peace

by Morihei Ueshiba
Translated and edited by John Stevens

Also includes two essays by Stevens about Ueshiba.

This is a great, if brief, look at the foundations of Aikido philosophy. The essays examine Ueshiba-sensei's life and his martial teachings, and gave me a great deal of insight into the man. I am now reading Abundant Peace, Stevens' full-length biography of Ueshiba-sensei, and it looks to offer even more.
