Synopsis
This book comprises of two aspects: 1) the author's conceptions of children with special educational needs and what attitude people around them should take. 2) a record of the actual sports training. And most importantly, the author's strong intent is evident throughout the book: the ultimate goal of his training method is to help children with special educational needs become independent, to lead a normal life and not need to be dependent on others in society.

Editorial Review
Unlike those people who only engage in educational arguments from the comfort of academia, the author has to face, and fight for, the children with his gloves off every day. The experiences that he gained through his actual training shine in his everyday efforts. At the same time, his struggles against the Japanese educational mainstream can be perceived in the book. The educational fringe which implements his motto, "make results happen," reminds us of the difficulty of the task of teaching others: there are no right answers in education.
