  "Mind Over Muscle: Writings from the Founder of Judo" by Jigoro Kano offers a profound exploration of the philosophy, principles, and educational values behind Judo, one of Japan's most renowned martial arts. This collection of essays and lectures reveals Kano’s vision of Judo as a discipline that goes beyond physical techniques, promoting moral and intellectual development for personal and societal benefit. Kano discusses key principles such as "Seiryoku Zenyo" (maximum efficiency with minimum effort) and "Jita Kyoei" (mutual welfare and benefit), emphasizing the importance of continuous self-improvement and mutual respect in all aspects of life. More than a martial art, Judo is presented as a way of life—a tool for building character, fostering resilience, and contributing to social harmony. This book is essential reading for martial artists, educators, and anyone interested in understanding how traditional practices can inspire modern personal growth and ethical living.

  The never before told story of the profound and compelling friendship between the two New York legends. 
   
   
   
  Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris are forever intertwined in baseball history thanks to the unforgettable 1961 season, when the two Yankee icons spurred each other to new heights in pursuit of Babe Ruth's home run record. History has largely overlooked the bond between the two men not as titans of their sport, but as people. 
   
   
   
  Guided by Tony Castro, bestselling author and foremost chronicler of Mantle, listeners will journey into history, from the Yankees' blockbuster trade for Maris, whose acquisition reignited Mantle's career after a horrendous 1959 season, to the heroics of 1961 and far beyond. 
   
   
   
  This dual biography is a thoroughly researched, emotionally gripping portrait that brings Yankees lore alive.
