ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

Aikido verbal
~ Written on Jun 24, 2006. 4 out of 5 users found this review helpful.

This book is really about verbal aikido principles rather than judo. There is no attack in aikido, only defence and even then you do only what is necessary to stop your attacker.

If anyone is curious about how martial arts can be used in everyday encounters - without harming the other person then buy this book. It is one of the best books I have ever read - not because it is so well written but because it works. Simple to understand and apply the techniques. Study aikido as well and you'll understand more.

Don't hesitate to buy this book. That is my reccomendation to you.

Despite the titles suggestion that this book is about fighting with words, it's advice centres on how to deal with verbal exchanges in a non-aggressive yet highly satisfying way. Instructing the reader on how to diffuse a verbal attack with the minimum of effort, the author equips us with the ability to win an argument or repel an insult with the satisfying knowledge that we have not stooped to the level of petty name calling. In the best tradition of self help books this promotes a strong sense of self and general wellbeing while offering some very specific and often quite entertaining tips on how to deal with verbal exchanges. A good read for those of us who can let the way others perceive us, rule the way we perceive ourselves.
