In much the same way, all around the world people have developed fighting arts according to their needs, physical characteristics, and historical context. Those arts that failed to evolve with the changes in times have become obsolete.

It is, in my opinion, the most scientifically advanced form of karatedo which is presented in this book. It has benefited from the study of all other martial arts and animal fighting techniques and from the application of modern sciences. It emphasizes circular and triangular motions to avoid clashing with the opponent in order to use his own action and to prevent injury. All the aspects of training and competition are explained in this book, as well as the historical meaning and philosophy of karatedo.

Shihan Masayuki Hisataka has devoted his life to karatedo and in this book, written with all his soul, he reveals the better part of his considerable knowledge, in a manner that is easy to understand for any reader.

I highly recommend this book to every student of karatedo, indeed, to any person interested in the history, techniques, and philosophy of modern karatedo.
