The Mystic Arts of the Ninja the Mystic Arts of the Ninja


Stephen K. Hayes - 1985
    That single word conjures up images of mystery and power. The ability to move swiftly and silently, to mesmerize one's victim, to strike infallibly, and then to disappear into the night--this is the legend of the "ninja." These nearly sorcerous aspects of the "ninja," as well as the exotic weapons they use, are the focus of "The Mystic Arts of the Ninja." Its author, "Shidoshi" Stephen K. Hayes, is the sole American to be granted teaching credentials by the 34th grandmaster of the Togokure School of "Ninjutsu" in Japan. Going beyond the basic conditioning and training techniques of his best-selling "Ninjutsu: The Art of the Invisible Warrior," Hayes explains the most sought after secrets of his ninja training:Hypnotism: Saiminjutsu, the ninja's hypnotic powers are described and explained. Sample exercises are provided to help develop your hypnotic powers.Invisibility: Stealth walking and camouflage are discussed. Hayes provides examples of how to move silently across various kinds of terrain and how to blend into your surroundings to become invisible.Weaponry: The Hanbo cane, the sword, and the infamous shuriken throwing stars are ninja trademarks. Hayes fully describes their use in grappling as well as in attacking. More than 400 black-and-white photos are used to illustrate the secrets and techniques that have been used by the ninja to surprise and outwit their foes over the past 800 years. The authenticity of "Shidoshi" Hayes's instruction is perhaps the most important aspect of this book: no other book represents the true ninja tradition.

Word Myths: Debunking Linguistic Urban Legends


David Wilton - 2004
    David Wilton debunks the most persistently wrong word histories, and gives, to the best of our actual knowledge, the real stories behind these perennially mis-etymologized words. In addition, he explains why these wrong stories are created, disseminated, and persist, even after being corrected time and time again. What makes us cling to these stories, when the truth behind these words and phrases is available, for the most part, at any library or on the Internet? Arranged by chapters, this book avoids a dry A-Z format. Chapters separate misetymologies by kind, including The Perils of Political Correctness (picnics have nothing to do with lynchings), Posh, Phat Pommies (the problems of bacronyming--the desire to make every word into an acronym), and CANOE (which stands for the Conspiracy to Attribute Nautical Origins to Everything). Word Myths corrects long-held and far-flung examples of wrong etymologies, without taking the fun out of etymology itself. It's the best of both worlds: not only do you learn the many wrong stories behind these words, you also learn why and how they are created--and what the real story is.
