What is Shen Ku? Roughly translated: "Pure Traveler" or "Phantom Passenger." What exactly is the "art of...?" Mastering the skill and knowledge of practically everything anyone comes across while on Earth, including:
* Tying knots and enhancing sex
* Numerology and self hypnosis
* Herbal therapy and forecasting weather
* Curing nosebleeds and removing stains
* Kung fu and magic tricks
* Isometric and breathing exercises of monks
* Self defense and catching fish
And this is only the beginning.
Irreverent and quirky, serious and 100% straightforward, The Art of Shen Ku explores hundreds of topics from a broad spectrum of life situations, and gives ingeniously
simple advice on how to cope with them, overcome them, use them, and benefit from them.

If you have anybody who needs an awe-inspiring present, then this book is for you. In short, buy it!" —The Travel and Leisure Magazine
