Description

This book teaches young men to recognize, avoid, escape, and if all else fails, fight off the most common threats to their safety. The program has been extensively studied and tested, and is based on the latest criminological, psychological, and statistical research, input from experts in virtually every relevant field, practical lessons from case studies of crimes and successful escapes, and the wisdom of the world’s most important writings relevant to personal safety (e.g., the Bible, the Quran, Sun Tzu’s The Art of War, Homer’s The Iliad). In addition to videos and instruction on simple self-defense techniques designed to take advantage of the elements of surprise, deception, and natural vulnerabilities, the book covers (by chapter): 1. Your Best Defense and Greatest Threat (show me your friends and I’ll show you your future; resistance technique: escaping the one-handed grasp); 2.
