About the Author
Sensei ("teacher") Takao Nakaya decided to follow the way of Karate at an early age. Since then, he has lived the simple and spartan life of a teacher. Though he'd never boast about it, Sensei Nakaya trained under some of the greatest karateka ("karate practitioner") of his day. Sensei Nakaya has never aspired to be famous or rich off his knowledge and ability.
Sensei Nakaya's book, Karatedo History and Philosophy, contains a plethora of meticulously researched information and stories. He speculates as little as possible and informs the reader exactly how far his thorough research extends.
