"An unforgettable account, crackling with energy and full of heart, of how one man discovers the twin worlds of the martial arts and Buddhist practice. This is the kind of book that can change your life."

                                  Philip Zaleski, Editor of The Best Spiritual Writing series,

                                            author of Gifts of the Spirit and The Recollected Heart

The bottom line for me is this is the best damn book I have ever read.  It is filled with more sincerity and wisdom than anything I have come across in a long, long time.  It reminded me that leading a good life is a worthwhile goal and that through sincere practice you can achieve it.

This book is for all readers… it will careen around your mind, illuminate unquestioned beliefs and perhaps even prompt you to reconsider your life, your values and recognize the unlimited possibilities that constitute "you."… Rhinoceros Zen is a wild ride: a fun read, insightful and fascinating.

A fascinating collection of observations, incidents, and ruminations on the role Zen Buddhism has played in his life and in his karate-do.  Brutally honest, entertaining, and forthright …”
