Philosophy of Fighting
Philosophy of Fighting: Morals and Motivations of the Modern Warrior. By: Keith Vargo.
For the firsttime, the thoughtful writings of Keith Vargo, the popular author of Black Belt's Way of the Warrior column, are compiled in Philosophy of Fighting: Morals and Motivations of the Modern Warrior. Comprising a decade's worth of discourses, Philosophy of Fighting allows readers to explore the stimulating ideas, observations and arguments addressed by Vargo in the world's leading martial arts magazine.
With the watchful eye of a trained psychologist, Vargo entertains and provokes readers by examining trends, traditions, thinkers, cultures and fields that shape the martial arts. Like Freud, Vargo leaves no stone unturned, touching on topics that include the purpose of champions like Royce Gracie, the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu phenomenon, powerful but lesser known arts like tres personas escrima, the great debate between mixed martial artists and traditional artists, the psychology of winning and losing, the reality of self defense, the lessons of great epics and much more.
Philosophy of Fighting: Morals and Motivations of the Modern Warrior will keep fighters and readers actively engaged in the philosophical questions and considerations that define the modern warrior in a contemporary world.
