| | The Bear Slayer: Womens Self Defense $25.62 This book is the result of many years of teaching self defense specifically to women. The book takes the lessons learned from the students in teaching the subject and presents them in a total approach. This book gives several fundamental concepts in martial arts in language and approach that is natural for women taking into account their need to be nurturers. Methods are presented to identify the potential behavior of an attacker in every day terms for the nurturer. Techniques are given to deal with an attack arising out of this behavior. The capabilities, fears and feelings of the woman nurturer with limited training are considered in how the self defense techniques are presented and done. All of these concepts are coalesced in a simple simple recipe that is useful and adaptable for womens self defense. Author: Goble, Ph. D. Gerald W.

| | In Defense of Self and Others? (Paperback) $61.53 In Defense of Self and Others comprehensively addresses the issue of the use of deadly force by law enforcement officers. Beginning with a survey and analysis of the legal standards that define the authority of law enforcement officers to use deadly force, the book provides a detailed discussion of the practical elements that affect an officer`s capacity to perceive a threat and to respond in an appropriate and timely fashion. For example, observing that law enforcement officers are always in a reactive mode and responding to the actions of others, the book explains how and why officers are compelled to make quick decisions under severe time constraints where ?action beats reaction.? Moreover, a thorough discussion of ?wound ballistics? illustrates why officers do not possess a reliable means of instantaneously stopping a perceived threat and explains how that affects tactics, training and risk assessments. There are additional chapters that discuss tactics and training, physiological factors of high intensity stress, suicide by cop, the effects of policy and training on the ability of officers to make appropriate decisions regarding the use of force, and much more. Numerous case histories are cited to illustrate the points made. As a result of the addition of new material, including an entirely new chapter that addresses the use of non-deadly force by law enforcement officers, this second edition is 40% larger than the first, and substantially more comprehensive in its coverage of the subject matter. Undoubtedly, the most unique aspect of this book is the expertise of the authors. Acquired during almost 60 years of combined law enforcement experience, Patrick and Hall`s expertise reflects a blend of the legal with the practical that is unprecedented. The Supreme Court of the United States has ruled that an officer`s decision to use force must be reviewed from the ?perspective of a reasonable officer on the scene.? The object of this book is to provide insight into |

Self Defense - 16 Basic Body Weapons For Giving You the Greatest Advantage!
Are you serious about developing powerful, efficient, and effective self defense skills? Do you want to be capable of quick, decisive action?
If so, then you must be able to do things that are outside of what your attacker is used to seeing. And, this includes how you take the fight to him!
The focus of this article is to present a list of body weapons that will significantly increase your ability to defend yourself. And, at the same time, give you the ability to do more than throw the same punches and kicks that he will already be waiting for.
This is a very important reality of self protection to keep in mind - and that's the truth that, if he has any kind of fight experience whatsoever, then he will already be watching for the same strikes and kicks that most people will typically throw.
Do you understand that?
Do you get the significance of that reality?
It means that you have to be able to think outside the box. And, thinking outside the box, as I teach it to my students, means more than just having a bunch of "tricky moves."
To "think outside the box," requires that you first understand, "the box."
And, the box that I'm talking about here, is how he thinks about striking and what he'll be watching for from you. It means that he'll already be on the lookout for certain, common and predictable things that almost "everyone" does.
And, if you're going to have any chance at all of getting out of there with the least amount of wear-and-tear on yourself, then you must be able to think, move, and act in ways that are VERY DIFFERENT from the average person!
And, while this article is about how to do that with your striking techniques, this strategy and training concept goes far beyond your striking skills to involve everything that you do.
That being said, here is a basic list of 16 body weapons that I give to my beginner students. The list changes as the new student progresses in skill and understanding, but for now, it provides a good model to convey what I mean by increasing your options and thinking outside the box.
The 16 Basic Body Weapons include:
- Head
- Right Shoulder
- Left Shoulder
- Right Elbow
- Left Elbow
- Right Hand
- Left Hand
- Right Hand Fingers
- Left Hand Fingers
- Right Hip
- Left Hip
- Right Knee
- Left Knee
- Right Foot
- Left Foot
- Body-as-weapon (Torso)
For more information on what you MUST know to survive a real street attack, read my newest self defense book: "Fight Smarter - Not Harder!" It's available free at: http://www.warrior-concepts-online.com/street-fighting-self-defense-book.html
Effective self defense requires more than just a few "karate moves." It involves the ability to think strategically, and understand how to defend yourself with as little wear-and-tear on you as possible.

I am having huge issues as of late and have come to some conclusions about this. I decided to researach some on the internet today and came across your post. IRONICALLY…I have the psychic Self defense book and I don’t have many books like this. I’m not even sure how it came to be in my possession to be honest. That seems strange to me. Okay, so this is my deal…I’m currently 49 and having these issues again. As a teenager I was EXTREMELY strong with poltergeist energy…but we never discussed it in our family, I ignored it and deneyed things to my paraents and friends. I knew so much and had gut feelings about things that would go awry or phone calls, etc. Even though I knew what was going to happen…I had no control over any of it. For instance…I could suddenly realize…that painting is going to fall off the wall for no reason and within the hour or so…or during the middle of the night…it ALWAYS would occur. HOWEVER…if I tried to manipulate something and make it move, fall or whatever. It was not at all possible. As I got older, I just turned off the energy as much as I could because it really did frighten me a abit. (I have had people come to me in my sleep however that could (and did) physically touch me. As soon as I realized it was real…it was gone instantly…but the knowledge it was not a dream remained. (For personal reasons, I never shared these things) I was in a relationship and one eve after intense lovemaking the spirits went CRAZY in my home. My cat was TRULY freaking out like never seen before and my partner and I sat in bed too scared to speak and truly not moving. At about 5 in the morning we had finially dozed off and my partner was awoken by being chocked by an unseen presence. Many years later…(and single again) I have begun buddhist chanting. It seemed to activate this same INTENSE, electric energy. I have two kittens now and the same type of event occurred last night with the exception I was home alone and was awoken out of a sleep by the current running through the house. It got more active and frightening….I eventually left the house by driving away and eating at a all night diner for an hour or so. Today I am saging my home but what keeps running through my head is I activate all of this. My energy is amped up for some reason (last night it was a group buddhist chant) It triggers the start of this and almost seems like it opens a window for something other than a poltergeist to enter becauase this was truly seperate energies not coming from me. I feel I call them to me and can’t help this at all. I actually enjoy many of my psychic gifts, intutions, feelings, etc….but this is something COMPLETELY anad totally seperate and frightens me. It is not comforting in the least. Can you provide any help or advise? I don’t know where to turn because people don’t understand this often.
