In Bokken, Dave Lowry explores how training with a
bokken, or "wooden sword," can be used to enhance the minds
and bodies of martial arts students. He delves into not only
the nature of the bokken, but also the nature of budo and
bujutsu in general. Bokken: Art of the Japanese Sword
does not present training in a classical ryu of swordsmanship
as much as it offers readers general exercises that aim at a
coordination of mind, body, and weapon.
