Defend Yourself 101

Scientific Self-Defense author: W. E. Fairbairn rating: asin: 1581605293 binding: Paperback

Defendu, written by Fairbairn for the police forces of the Far East, was the base for this revision expanded for civilians.

But I must take exception to this: much of the content is useful only to police who must restrain and arrest a person.  Seldom will ordinary folks have to do this although the knowledge in this book would come in very handy if we did.

Douglas Fairbanks, actor and sportsman, wrote in the preface, 1931:

“After a long experience of methods of attack and defence, I am convinced that no methods that I have seen put into book form meet the requirements of the average man and present-day conditions.”

Peyton writes about Real Crimes, Real Criminals:

RMCAT classes are reality based and to accomplish that we have interviewed convicts, killers and criminal assailants of most every kind. This video is a collection of some of those very interviews. In talking to violent, convicted felons we learn how they select their victims and very importantly why they will pass on a given individual as a potential victim if they spot certain behaviors in them.
