Book excerpt: Did you know that the latest technology and research shows that the brain undergoes very specific changes in its functioning during a close combat incident? Whether training for self defence, law enforcement / military close combat procedures, or traditional martial arts and sports fighting: under certain conditions the brain will switch from one mode of functioning to another. The Maul Book is the first book to delve into this research, and through extensive testing within different close combat environments, integrate this research into new and fresh training methodologies. The Maul Book is a must for any practitioner from any martial arts, self defence, close combat or tactical environment, as well as for instructors serious about providing the best training developed and influenced through the latest research. Here's what you will learn from The Maul Book: What the latest research teaches on the brain's functioning under certain conditions. Old brain models that have now been shown as defunct and obsolete. How the changes in brain function influences performance and decision making within highly dynamic environments. How to better identify and select targets within high speed and ever changing situations. Techniques, tactics and training methodologies that work WITH the brain and it's different ways of functioning. How to apply this research into any martial art or close combat training system. The core knowledge base of The Maul as an example of how to integrate the research into an existing system. What do some of our proof readers say? "I could easily just state that this is one of the best books on knife combatives I have read, ever, and be done with it. But that would be a disservice to both the authors and to you, the reader... It is, quite simply, the best approach to realistic knife combatives written in years... I cannot give it a higher recommendation than this, read it, practice it, read it again, and keep working it. This is good stuff. I wish this book was out when I started in this arena."-Terry Trahan "The Maul tells you why some things probably won't work and why you should reassess your own training to realign it with what is currently known about the human brain. This is the most important book on Defensive Edged Weapons to come out in years."-Don Rearic "Reading 'The Maul' as a review for Schalk and Gavin was a sheer pleasure. As I read it I saw thoughts chrystalise into reality... I taught some of the content on the night I finished reviewing the book, yes it is that good, and my students, instructor and senior instructor who were present clearly benefited from it, as did I. The Maul is recommended reading for anyone serious about self improvement and advancing their knowledge."-Garry Smith "I believe regardless of the readers knowledge base, this book is worth reading and drawing from."-Xavier Knox "Concise, easily incorporated into existing training and research driven! You cannot ask for more."-Dr. TJ Greyvenstein

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Set before the events of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, this new novel is a thrilling follow-up to Star Wars: Darth Plagueis. It's kill or be killed in the space penitentiary that houses the galaxy’s worst criminals, where convicts face off in gladiatorial combat while an underworld gambling empire reaps the profits of the illicit blood sport. But the newest contender in this savage arena, as demonic to behold as he is deadly to challenge, is fighting for more than just survival. His do-or-die mission, for the dark masters he serves, is to capture the ultimate weapon: an object that will enable the Sith to conquer the galaxy. Sith lords Darth Plagueis and Darth Sidious are determined to possess the prize. And one of the power-hungry duo has his own treacherous plans for it. But first, their fearsome apprentice must take on a bloodthirsty prison warden, a cannibal gang, cutthroat crime lord Jabba the Hutt, and an unspeakable alien horror. No one else could brave such a gauntlet of death and live. But no one else is the dreaded dark-side disciple known as Darth Maul. Praise for Lockdown “Schreiber . . . was a great choice for this novel, imbuing the story with a dark, foreboding tone while never quite stepping into the horror territories that Death Troopers and Red Harvest took us.”—Jedi News “Fans of the dark side should rejoice. Lockdown delivers a can’t-put-this-down tale of scum and villainy.”—Club Jade “[Lockdown is] an action-packed ride that spins one entertaining chapter after another. The multiple layers of story keeps readers guessing what will happen next and just who will live and who will die. . . . It certainly adds to the character of Darth Maul while matching [Darth] Plagueis’s complexity with sheer fun. . . . Five out of five metal bikinis.”—Roqoo Depot “Somehow, Schreiber is able to skate the line between hard-hitting prison story and the adventure and excitement I love from Star Wars in a way that doesn’t betray either genre. It’s really quite masterful.”—Big Shiny Robot “Lockdown is an exciting, engaging read. . . . It actually lines up beautifully for a sequel, which I, for one, would love to read.”—Coffee with Kenobi “The novel makes The Clone Wars better. It also illuminates The Phantom Menace. I think it’s the hallmark of the best tie-in fiction to resonate throughout other parts of the expanded universe in that way.”—Knights’ Archive “By the fiftieth page, I was hooked. . . . Lockdown is a wonderful ‘antihero’ novel, where it’s just fine to root for the villain, because there are even worse things out there. This book was so fun and entertaining. I’ll have to keep an eye out for more Star Wars books from Schreiber.”—Seattle Geekly

Download or read book Mud Maul Mascara written by Catherine Spencer and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longlisted for William Hill Sports Book of the Year 2020 'This pioneering memoir . . . engagingly balances the highs of captaincy and grand slams with striking emotional honesty as to her regrets' Guardian Books of the Year 'Her struggle is that of women’s rugby and it is told here with great honesty' Sunday Times Books of the Year Catherine Spencer was the captain of the England women’s rugby team for three years. She scored eighteen tries for England, won six of the eight Six Nations competitions she took part in, and captained her team to three championship titles, a European cup, two Nations Cup tournament victories and the World Cup final held on home soil in 2010, which thrust women’s rugby into the limelight. All of this while holding down a full time job, because the women’s team, unlike the men’s, did not get paid for their sport. Mud, Maul, Mascara is an effort to reconcile alleged opposites, to show the woman behind the international sporting success. Painfully honest about the mental struggles Catherine faced during, and after, her career as an elite athlete, it is also warm, funny and inspirational – a book for anyone who has ever had a dream, or self-doubt, or a yearning for a really good, mud-proof mascara.
