Learn how mental attitude, body language, assertiveness, and the ability to overcome fear can prevent you from becoming a prime target for criminals. Learn which parts of the body are the most effective weapons in fending off an attacker, and which are the most likely targets for attack. Defend yourself from sudden grabs, strangles, weapons, and road rage. And find out how to deliver the SAS five-second knockout, a defence previously available only to British SAS Special Forces soldiers.
Illustrated with black-and-white photographs and instructive artworks and including expert advice throughout, The SAS and Special Forces Self-Defence Handbook is a comprehensive guide to self-defence for both men and women.
A former member of the Parachute Regiment, John ‘Lofty’ Wiseman was a member of the SAS for 26 years. He has written numerous best-selling books on special forces and survival topics, including The SAS Self-Defence Handbook: A Complete Guide to Unarmed Combat Techniques, The SAS Survival Handbook, The SAS Urban Survival Handbook and SAS Self-Defence Manual.
