The content in this special two-volume Via Media anthology details the facets of aikido of Morihei Ueshiba (1883–1969)—O-Sensei, the great teacher. Each chapter in this Via Media book contributes to a piece of the aikido puzzle by providing historical details, insightful technical drills (bare handed and with weapons), and components that have flavored this art with a spiritual essence.
