The author draws on the traditional codes and backgrounds of both European and Asian warriors - knights and samurai, and also examines the role of virtue in decision-making. This book presents the unique notion of a bioenegtic dimension to ethics, and explores this notion though the works of Jungian depth psychologist Wilhelm Reich, and through the study and Chinese internal energy theory, known as Qigong. The result is a comprehensive examination of the decision-making processes one must undergo to achieve authentic ethical resolutions. Professional Budo is a non-rule book for the internal cultivation of ethics. A fascinating blend of Eastern and Western philosophies, this book offers insight into the complicated and conscious action of ethical decision-making, and advocates an individual response to conflict based on professional knowledge, skill and discipline.
