Antellus Republishes A BOOK OF FIVE RINGS: A Practical Guide To Strategy by Miyamoto Musashi In 2014

LOS ANGELES - July 3, 2014 - PRLog -- A BOOK OF FIVE RINGS: A Practical Guide To Strategy by Miyamoto Musashi - ISBN 978-1-938752-51-3, 104 pages, 6x9 color paperback with matte cover, list price $14.00. Subtitle: A Modern Translation For the 21st Century Compiled and Illustrated by Theresa M. Moore. A retranslation of the master work on strategy by the master ronin and kensei (sword saint) Miyamoto Musashi; containing principles which can be applied to the battlefield, gaming, and the boardroom. This book also features a biography of Musashi and essays on history and the martial arts traditions of Japan, as well as a gallery of art by Musashi and full color prints by other artists celebrating his life and work.

The retranslation merely reduces the redundency of the instruction to its most logical elements in order to make it easier to read by modern eyes, and includes footnotes. The text block has been slightly rearranged so that most of the text has moved toward the front, while the art galleries have been moved toward the back. The chapter headings have been rendered in text only to save space. "I wanted to produce a book which is instructive as well as entertaining to the 21st century mind," the author said. "And for a lower price. I did not want to produce it in the smaller format because the art would have been scrunched, so it is as inexpensive as it can be, given all the variables involved."
