In the event of nuclear war or zombie apocalypse and it’s up to you to rebuild society…you’ll need this book.

I got THE ART OF SENKU book after I was looking for martial arts training tips online. I found pages of the book and got curious where they came from.I found the book on AMAZON and it was better than I thought it would be. There are all sorts of subjects covered in the book. Self defense and martial arts training, exercise tips, symptoms of ailments, benefits of herbs, how to deal with household pests, recipes, growing plants, knot tying, etc.I can best describe it as a Chinese Boy Scout manual.

This book was given to me as a gift many years ago, at first I did not know what to make of it. It was a cartoon book! There were all of these very artful illustrations and cute little cartoon characters (each with their own little bio!). But soon after sitting with the book alone and having a little bit of time to start digesting what was in the book I was blown away! There seemed to be a little bit of something on just about everything. Want to know how to tie down that load in the back of your truck, check out how in this book. Want to know what herbs, vitamins or acupuncture points will help your energy, again, check it out in this book. It was amazing. It also seems that everytime I am reading on something, I come across some information that I never saw before, it is a continual source of wonderment.At first I was a bit cynical of the book, how could someone know so much about so many different subjects? I tested it, over time I had friends who were well versed in their individual disciplines; I checked with acupuncturist, martial artist, yoga, herbologist, they all agreed that the information was of value. I was sold!Since then I have gifted so many of these books and also loaned out my own copy, never getting it back and buying new ones (I did this so many times, my wife finally on my latest copy, wrote a nice personal little note on it, maybe so I stop giving my copy away?!?)I cannot recommend this book enough, get it today.

Imagine, if you will, that you are in the company of a man who has travelled the world, seen many things that are NOT in the guidebooks, been in the company of many people both great and small, taken a lot of hard knocks, learned much to prevent repeating any mistakes, and lived to tell about it.This is the book he wrote.Equal parts Boy Scout Handbook, Whole Earth Catalogue and "Junior Woodchuck Guidebook" (the impossably complete reference book that Donald Duck's nephews carried with them), with painstakingly detailed illustrations on each and every page, tinted with Oriental wisdom.Just a sampling of the contents (with randomly chosen pages): "Asian secrets of walking stick combat", "A traveler's guide to self-hypnosis", "Rapid reference accupressure treatments", "Emergency entertainment for bored, whining or fighting kids", "Effective beauty treatments with simple natural ingredients", "How to survive disaster situations", "How to condition for martial art strikes", "Non-violent child control", "Simple and healthy vegetarian recipes", "How to execute classic Kung Fu moves".My friend, this is the one! From boating emergencies to avoiding a fight, from preventing food poisoning to physical fitness information, from natural therapies to preventing bedwetting, from Laws of the Sea to preventing skin problems, from tying knots to yoga postures....I cannot say enough about this book. Buy it. Better yet, buy two and hide one copy. Someone is bound to "borrow" this from you.(ADDENDUM: I sent a copy to a friend of mine. He has paid me to send him four additional copies to give away as presents.)

Ein wirklich sehr gutes Buch und gleichzeitig Lebensweg Begleiter.Für alle Situationen im Leben vorbereitet zu sein, daß ist mein streben, sowie im Einklang mit der Natur zu Leben, wie mit sich selbst im Reinen zu sein.ein muß für jeden, der Bewußter Leben und das Leben genießen will.

An amazing and unique book, which is completely different to any other book out there, it is a veritable treasure trove of information, yet it is easy to read and entertaining. The drawings are incredible. A great book to dip in and out of. Highly entertaining and factual.
