Basics and Principles of Self Defense

However, when the topic of »self-defense« comes up, many people often ask themselves questions such as:- How would I behave myself in such a situation?- What can or may I do; what is allowed or forbidden?- (How) can I prepare for such a situation?This book is aimed at interested readers of all ages and is intended to help to find answers to these questions. Furthermore, it should give the reader a good first overview of the broad topic of »self-defense«.In this book principles and techniques for typical self-defense situations are described that can still work under stress. The techniques presented here are intended only be understood as a recommendation from a number of different possibilities and not at all as »the best« solution in a certain self-defense situation. Also it is not about to emphasize one particular of the many different fighting styles, but rather to create an understanding that in a self-defense situation neither one nor the other fighting style is the »better« one.The only thing that counts in the end is: Any solution that works in an emergency is a good solution.
