Warriors of myth and legend, ninja are a fascinating, mysterious
presence in our world. Through generations of disinformation and,
more recently, their place in popular culture, the origins, tools,
and methodology of the ninja have been shrouded in secrecy to
alternately terrify or entertain the populace. The weapons of
Ninjutsu are unusual and unorthodox. Though they have been
popularized by the public's expanding interest in the Ninja arts,
they remain poorly understood. Glamorization of this method of
defense has led to a publicly perceived disassociation from its
origins as a "peasant art." Ninja Tools and Weapons provides a
reframing of the skills of Ninjutsu closer to the discipline's
lower-class roots. Dr. Michel Farivar clarifies the origins of the
weapons as well as supplies indepth insight into the mindset that
developed them. As Ninjutsu moves into the modern age, this
clarification remains relevant to those interested in the history
of the ninja as well as the anatomy and evolution of conflict.
