Overview
"I sought clarity." So begins The Edge, which documents the parallel journeys of a martial arts master and his student. It is a record of the insights Ray Fisher has gleaned during his more than thirty years of intensive practice--insights into matters both practical and spiritual--and a bold conceptualization of the martial arts as a way of life. Alongside this, The Edge tells the story of co-author Robert Lurie's slow and sometimes painful transition, under Fisher's tutelage, from being "a man forever seated, bathed in the flickering glow of a monitor" into a more fully integrated human being: someone in whom the physical (which had always been given short shrift) could now take its place alongside, and perhaps even rein in, the cerebral. The Edge is not just a book for martial artists. Rather, it is a book for anyone who has ever felt the stirring of a desire for self-transformation.
