Bushido: The Soul of Japan. A Classic Essay on Samurai Ethics by Inazō Nitobe

4.0

Nitobe’s Bushido is a great insight into Japan’s most famous warriors, the samurai. His book delves into the philosophy of this mythic class, bringing them forth to reality and giving them a new life. What is seen as absolutely foreign to a Western audience, Nitobe masterfully blends Bushido with Western philosophy and Christianity to bridge the gap between cultures, and show that they are more alike than what was originally perceived.
