Rethinking the San Francisco System in Indo-Pacific Security
This remarkable collection commemorates the 70th anniversary of the 1951 San Francisco Peace Conference by revisiting the important legacies of both the Peace Treaty and the US-Japan Security Treaty have had on the peace and stability of the Asia-Pacific. Drawing on multiple perspectives, the volume conveys the hopes and fears that the authors have for the domestic and international politics of the region. In a post Trumpian world marked by the US-China tensions amidst a raging pandemic, the region’s continued prosperity looks exceedingly grim. Would the arrangements made in 1951 continue to have relevance for an Indo-Pacific region beset by great power rivalry and potential conflict fuell...
Empty Handed: A Modern Day Miyagi
This book is about me and my life being bullied and told I would never be a Black Belt in the martial arts. But I didn't listen, and now 21 years later I have multiple black belts and am about to test for my 5th Degree Black in 3 different styles. I am also a 2x Martial Arts Hall of Fame Member, have met many famous martial artists and actors, and am one of the top martial arts historians in the world. The book tells about how martial arts has changed in 40 years and how I predict it will change in the future. It gives advice when looking for a good school and when to run the other way. And it tells about my struggles to be a Modern Day Miyagi and how I have gone broke teaching high quality martial arts while others teach sub-par martial arts and yet are very wealthy school owners.

Mr. Miyagi and Me
"If you come to my dojo you will never be promoted to any rank. You will always remain a white belt. But, I expect that you will be like all other Americans who came to my class and quit. I am too strict, much too tough for Americans. But, if you want to learn and learn the right way, come back and I will teach you." Mr. Takeshi Miyagi directed those words to me on a rainy, November night in 1963. The following evening fellow Marine, Len Neidert and I returned to begin classes and were immediately served our very first dose of humble pie. Lessons in humility began when we were told that our first duty every night would be sweeping the pebbles from the hardened dirt floor of our outdoor class...
