First sentence: EMERGING from a long period of obscurity in the East-during which time it was familiar only to relatively restricted circles-aikido has been called one of the most subtle and sophisticated of the martial arts, and-at its higher levels-an effective discipline for the development, integration, and utilization of all man's powers, physical and mental (spiritual).
