I have that book too!
It's a good one. I did a report on it ~2 years ago for my taekwondo instructor as part of my green belt advancement requirements (I had blown out my knee and did it in lieu of some of the physical requirements). I made what I felt was a good argument regarding it's applicability to modern martial artistry. Although on the surface it's a book about swordsmanship, there are deeper lessons to be learned from it.

I'll raise you one DEATH STAR!
The power to destroy a planet is insignificant compared to the power of the Force.
I find your lack of faith disturbing.
