Book Features & Author Introduction
Bushido: The Soul of Japan — A Timeless Classic on the Spirit of the Japanese People
Written by renowned philosopher and educator Inazo Nitobe, Bushido explores the ethical and spiritual foundations of the Japanese people through the lens of the samurai code. Drawing upon Shinto, Buddhism, and Confucianism, and comparing these with Western philosophy and chivalry, Nitobe offers a compelling explanation of the Japanese moral framework to a global audience.
This classic work remains a vital resource for understanding the cultural and philosophical roots of Japan. Its enduring relevance is evidenced by the influence it had on historical figures such as U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt, who, deeply moved by the book, purchased thirty copies to share with friends and family, urging them to study the virtues embodied by the Japanese people.
Presented in large, easy-to-read print, this edition invites readers to revisit a work that continues to resonate across cultures and generations.
