Summary: Cut-and-dry self-protection book
Comment: The techniques presented in this book are simple and deadly. They are meant to be used when one is facing a life and death situation. Many involve holding on to your opponent's head while delivering a potentially fatal blow. Some of these techniques are suited only for attacking the eyes or throat. If I were going on to the battlefield, this book would be all I'd need; however, in the civilian world, there are things that this book does not address, such as awareness and avoidance, and legal considerations. However, it does address different crimes that the reader may come up against, and having the proper mental attitude to deliver these fatal techniques. I'd recomend getting this book as a suplement to a more awareness-based self defense program; these are great techniques, but knowing when to use them is critical.

Summary: Simple, brutal, and very, very effective!!!
Comment: Larry Jordan has seen it all - life on the tough streets of L.A., barroom fights and combat as a Special Forces soldier. Simply put, he knows what works and what will get you out of a bad situation, whether it be a barroom "disagreement" or a brutal assault.
The "dirty dozen" encompass a series of very simple and sometimes potentially maiming/life ending techniques that anyone can use regardless of their size or age. They are not traditional martial arts, sport karate or even combat sports such as submission fighting (Ultimate Fighting Championship). They are economical,quick moves, that once executed properly, will end the fight. Many of these moves can be done from a seated or even prone position.
As a proficient boxer and black belt in Karate, I have been able to defend myself in a couple of barroom "situations." However, in a fight, I usually found myself using boxing combinations that while effective, rely heavily on speed and strength. Basically, I was trying to handle a self-defense situation with a sport or martial arts approach. Had I known these moves, I would have been able to end these situations much earlier and with much less effort. These are moves that I'll be able to execute the rest of my life!
If you are looking for self-defense/survival techniques that are brutally effective on the street - you've found the right book!

Summary: Excellent !...
Comment: The book is excellent, practical and really dirty !
If you are learning a martial art, your objective is to preserve a
cultural institution. You are mastering the art form for the sake of
the form itself, and fighting competency (if you actually develop any)
is y byproduct of that process. If you are only interested in learning
self-defense, the artistic side of the fighting arts is not important
to you. How you look when you drive the your elbow into someone's face
does not matter, as long as you do it with enough power and speed
to get the job done - says the author.
The book starts with the author's autobiography - from the streets of
Sacramento to the Special Forces soldier.
Author then expalains the nature of the brutal violence under the
titles like murder, rape, roberry, kidnapping, carjacking, aggravated
assault and battery and terrorism. Then winning mindset and positive
attitude is being established.
After that the author introduces tools - natural body weapons,
vital targets and finnaly - the dirty dozen self protection
techniques and scenarios.
If you are serious about self protection - buy it.
With a little practice you will not miss.
