Summary: no nonsense dirty fighting
Review: It's a book mainly focus on fighting techniques. It should have more information on how to prevent a violent situation and on verbal self-defense, but Kathy is a Martial Artist. It's great to learn phisical self defense specially dirty moves but you should be consider complementary reading after reading a more general book.
About the moves, they are simple and very effective and many are design to work only against men. Yes, testicles are the number one target, and depicts many ways to exploit that weak spot even with pictures.
So, highly recomended, specially for women who had a mother like mine who used to said that a lady never hits a man "down there", but wants to learn how to beat a man.

Summary: Written by Davis Miller: TaoofBruce Lee & TaoofMuhammadAli
Review: That alone makes it worth finding a copy. To boot, you get the only book I've ever found that may actually help you defend yourself, whether you're a woman or a man. Clear, concise, simple, REAL. Not hokey like most martial arts and martial arts books. The only downside is the photos. They're not bad except when compared to the text.Try Davis Miller's own (more creative) books The Tao of Bruce Lee and The Tao of Muhammad Ali. This guy is one of the best writers in the world, period. Fun, exciting, serious, meditative, beautiful. More people need to know about this guy's powerful, original stories. And he's from my own hometown of Winston-Salem, NC. I can promise you: When you read something of his, it'll amaze you. And you'll turn right around and read it again.

Summary: Great Introduction into Women's Self-Defense Issues
Review: This book by Kathy Long with Davis Miller is targeted for women, but the techniques demonstrated can also be used by men. She focuses on the basic moves as simplicity is normally what works in a "real fight." The book isn't too detialed as to confuse the reader, but does spark a sense of urgency for women to prepare themselves buy learninig some simple prevention techniques and then by getting in shape and learning some practical strikes and techniques. I, like my husband, have been involved in the martial arts for years and think this book is great for beginners and very practical.
