The Art of Fighting Without Fighting: Techniques in Personal Threat Evasion [Secure eReader]
by Geoff Thompson
|

Our instinct in mid brain then is 'to run' away as opposed to 'stand and fight'. This instinct is deeply embedded in our genes and goes back thousands of years to our Mammalian ancestry where assailants were too great to stand and fight and 'flight' was always the favoured response.

Three Second Fighter: The Sniper Option [Secure eReader]
by Geoff Thompson
|

The majority of attacks/fights last less than three seconds and are preceded by aggressive or disarming behaviour. This book trains you to read the body language and ritual of attack and 'stop' your attacker in his tracks by using a physical and psychological 'fence' or a cripple-shooting attack. The book also covers 'ambush attacks' and 'match fighting'.
