Noriaki Osada, teacher and philosopher, first published his revolutionary book Theory of International

Physical Education and Sports Studies for the Achievement of Peace. With the offering before you,

Principles of Physical Education and Sports Studies, and Research in All Nations, Mr. Osada continues

his quest, elaborating on the theory of enlisting sports in the service of mankind as a means of promoting

world peace. Today the Olympic Games represent a similar endeavor, but Mr. Osada’s works not only create a

broader vision, but provide practical methods for making that dream a reality.

The specific sports covered here are martial arts, skating, gymnastics, skiing, and dance, but the

principles can be applied to all sports. An absolute must for physical education experts, this is an

exciting and powerful work.
