“Deep and Visionary”

Continuing the work he began in Theory of International Physical Education and Sports Studies for the Achievement of Peace, Osada continues to elaborate on the potential value of sports and physical education and what these activities can do for us. Using sports as analogies, Osada explores the processes of society and humanity, in an effort to show the potential available to us in our future. Going beyond the subject matter of his first book, Osada commits this space to really developing all the ideas he has presented to paint a more complete picture of all the concepts inside.

Osada’s pen is the pen of a studied scholar, and that comes through. His writing style is a little more accommodating this time, however, and a few of the step-by-step parts are much easier to follow. One of the things that really gives this a special place is Osada’s apparently genuine desire to help the world. As the last time, the complexity of the subject matter makes it very hard for a layman to pick up and work through, and a lot of the material was covered in the last work already, but it is given more depth here.

Philosophically, Principles is a book of new ideas to set the groundwork for a whole new generation of abstract thought. If you can pick up on the concepts, there are many ideas to work towards the meaningful goal of world peace.

Principles of Physical Education and Sports Studies, and Research in All Nations

The Solution to Our Current and Future Worldwide Conflicts

We are living in one of the most tragic and tumultuous times in world history. The horrifying events of September 11, 2007 started a chain reaction that has changed the world—for the worse. The terrible truth is that the attack on the World Trade Center, the invasion of Afghanastan and the invasion of Iraq all could have been avoided. Even the poverty and terrible civil wars raging across Africa might never have happened.

Just one book, carefully read and considered by the leaders of the World, could have changed the face of the planet. Noriaki Osada’s Principles of Physical Education and Sports Studies, and Research in All Nations can no longer be ignored. It must now be embraced as a world-wide invitation to end war, starvation, ignorance and evil.

Osada’s book is a beacon shining the way to a World made peaceful through international sports competitions. By studying people participating in different physical activities—each with their own protocals and significance—Principles clearly shows how the spirit of international competition can be applied to every facet of life.

Imagine—the feeling of togetherness and cooperation that all Nations show once every four years for the Olympic Game—as a permanent way of greeting and knowing people in every country. That is precisely what Noriaki Osada teaches the reader in this ground-breaking book.
