Protect Yourself: The Secret of Unarmed Defense is a system of defense in hand-to-hand encounter that had been developed through trial and error over a period of twenty-five years, beginning in the author's early youth. This system may be paced and adapted to many uses - by men, women, and children of any age. It is basically an education for living, not for fighting. A simple set of defense measures designed to be used in any emergency where one's person is in danger of physical assault. Fully explained both in pictures and words in the pages of this book, these holds and throws enable you to protect yourself from the tricks of jujitsu, judo, mugging, and all forms of physical attack. It is a simple and direct science - a matter of knowing how your muscles and joints work, of understanding the vital relation between movement and balance, of knowing what your opponent's weak points are and what your own strong points are.
