About the Author

Scott Shaw is a prolific author, actor, artist, filmmaker, photographer, and composer. Shaw's poetry and literary fiction were first published by literary journals in the late 1970s. He continued forward to have several works of poetry and literary fiction published, in book form, during the 1980s. By the mid 1980s, after having spent years traveling extensively throughout Asia, documenting obscure aspects of Asian culture in words and on film, his writings on social science began to be published, as well. As the 1990s dawned, Shaw writings, based upon a lifelong involvement with the martial arts and eastern mysticism, began to be embraced. From this, he has authored literally hundreds of articles and a number of books on meditation, the martial arts, yoga, and Zen Buddhism; published by large publishing houses.
