THE PATH OF THE RONIN--A Modern Guide To Self-Defense: After much consideration, I've included a copy of my most recent book here--free of charge. This manual may not be your typical self-defense guide--you won't find flashy photos or step-by-step technique here. What you will find is the product of over 15 years of training, personal research and first hand application. I am an enormous advocate of mental and psychological preparedness and so it's no surprise that this book offers an honest, simple and straight-forward guide to the tricks and lessons that I have gleaned from my masters and many, many teachers over the years. I've synthesized everything from hypnosis and neurolinguistic programming to Lao Tzu and Nietzsche here. I offer it humbly and honestly to those other like-minked wayfarers on the path. I hope you enjoy it.
