Book Description
"Bruce Lee was known as an amazing martial artist, but he was also a profound thinker. He left behind seven volumes of writing on everything from quantum physics to philosophy." — John Blake, CNN Named one of TIME magazine's "100 Greatest Men of the Century," Bruce Lee's impact and influence has only grown since his untimely death in 1973. Part of the seven-volume Bruce Lee Library, this installment of the famed martial artist's private notebooks allows his legions of fans to learn more about the man whose groundbreaking action films and martial arts training methods sparked a worldwide interest in the Asian martial arts. Bruce Lee Artist of Life explores the development of Lee's thoughts about Gung Fu (Kung Fu), philosophy, psychology, poetry, Jeet Kune Do, acting, and self-knowledge. Edited by John Little, a leading authority on Lee's life and work, the book includes a selection of letters that eloquently demonstrate how Lee incorporated his thought into actions and provided advice to others. Although Lee rose to stardom through his physical prowess and practice of jeet kune do—the system of fighting he founded—Lee was also a voracious and engaged reader who wrote extensively, synthesizing Eastern and Western thought into a unique personal philosophy of self-discovery. Martial arts practitioners and fans alike eagerly anticipate each new volume of the Library and its trove of rare letters, essays, and poems for the light it sheds on this legendary figure. This book is part of the Bruce Lee Library, which also features: Bruce Lee: Striking Thoughts Bruce Lee: The Celebrated Life of the Golden Dragon Bruce Lee: The Tao of Gung Fu Bruce Lee: Letters of the Dragon Bruce Lee: The Art of Expressing the Human Body Bruce Lee: Jeet Kune Do

Book Description
ie meisten Menschen kennen Bruce Lee nur von seinen Filmen und sehen ihn nur als Schauspieler, aber er war auch ein Kampfkunstler, Autor und Philosoph. Er begann sein Kampfkunsttraining in Hong Kong, als er 13 Jahre alt war. Ein Freund stellte ihn Yip Man vor, Grossmeister im Wing Chun Kung Fu. Funf Jahre trainierte Bruce sehr hart, meistens vier bis sechs Stunden pro Tag. Was er lernte, probierte er auf der Strasse aus, und dadurch bekam er immer wieder Probleme. Seine Eltern beschlossen daher, ihn 1959 nach Amerika zu schicken. Dort machte er den High School Abschluss und studierte an der Washington University in Seattle, WA, Philosophie. In seiner freien Zeit gab er einer kleinen Gruppe Studenten Kung Fu Unterricht. Einer dieser Studenten war Linda Emery, die er 1964 heiratete. Bruce eroffnete drei Kung Fu Schulen: in Oakland, Seattle und Los Angeles. Er war sehr fasziniert von Kampfkunst und allem, was damit zusammenhing und sammelte mehr als 2000 Bucher. 1973 starb Bruce Lee mit 32 Jahren, auf dem Hohepunkt seiner Karriere. Er hinterliess der Welt vier Filme (plus 20 Minuten von einem noch zu produzierenden funften Film) und die von ihm entwickelte Kampfkunst Jeet Kune Do. 1975, zwei Jahre nach dem Tod von Bruce, wurde die erste Ausgabe des Tao des Jeet Kune Do herausgegeben. Bruce hat an einem Buch gearbeitet, in dem er seine Ideen uber Kampfkunst veroffentlichen wollte. Es sollte eine siebenteilige Enzyklopadie werden, wofur er sich schon einen Titel ausgedacht hatte, The Tao of Jeet Kune Do. Seine enorme Anzahl von Aufzeichnungen und Notizen, zusammen mehr als 6000 Seiten, bildeten die Basis fur das Buch. Als seine Frau Linda nach seinem Tod beschloss, das Buch doch noch herauszugeben, stand sie vor der beinah unmoglichen Aufgabe, alles geschriebene Material zu ordnen. Mit der Hilfe von Gilbert Johnson, der die Redaktion des Buches ubernommen hatte, und den Schulern von Bruce, ist schliesslich The Tao of Jeet Kune Do entstanden. Das Buch wurde inzwischen in 11 Sprachen ubersetzt und weltweit wurden mehr als 1 Million Exemplare verkauft! Diese deutsche Ausgabe wurde besorgt von James ter Beek, der selbst Unterricht von Ted Wong hatte - Topschuler von Bruce Lee - und der zertifizierter Jeet Kune Do Lehrer

Book Description
When asked "What is the goal of a writer?" author Anne Lamott responded, "To help others have this sense of wonder, of seeing things anew, things that can catch us off guard, that break in on our small, bordered worlds."This is what Jawad Mian achieves with Stray Reflections, an intimate account of his journey through life and lessons learned along the way. He delivers distilled infusions of clarity and inspiration in short chapters for reading in quiet moments at home or at the office.In his own search for meaning, Jawad draws from such sources as Rumi, Emerson, Goethe, Buddha, Confucius, Seneca, and many others. To read Stray Reflections is to be immersed in the timeless wisdom of the great poets, saints, and philosophers. This book is an antidote to the great angst of modern life.

Book Description
Bruce Lee’s daughter illuminates her father’s most powerful life philosophies—demonstrating how martial arts are a perfect metaphor for personal growth, and how we can practice those teachings every day. "Empty your mind; be formless, shapeless like water." Bruce Lee is a cultural icon, renowned the world over for his martial arts and film legacy. But Lee was also a deeply philosophical thinker, learning at an early age that martial arts are more than just an exercise in physical discipline—they are an apt metaphor for living a fully realized life. Now, in Be Water, My Friend, Lee’s daughter Shannon shares the concepts at the core of his philosophies, showing how they can serve as tools of personal growth and self-actualization. Each chapter brings a lesson from Bruce Lee’s teachings, expanding on the foundation of his iconic “be water” philosophy. Over the course of the book, we discover how being like water allows us to embody fluidity and naturalness in life, bringing us closer to our essential flowing nature and our ability to be powerful, self-expressed, and free. Through previously untold stories from her father’s life and from her own journey in embodying these lessons, Shannon presents these philosophies in tangible, accessible ways. With Bruce Lee’s words as a guide, she encourages readers to pursue their essential selves and apply these ideas and practices to their everyday lives—whether in learning new things, overcoming obstacles, or ultimately finding their true path. Be Water, My Friend is an inspirational invitation to us all, a gentle call to action to consider our lives with new eyes. It is also a testament to how one man's exploration and determination transcended time and place to ignite our imaginations—and to inspire many around the world to transform their lives.
