Download or read book Rough and Tumble written by Travis Pickering and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2013-04-10 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travis Rayne Pickering argues that the advent of ambush hunting approximately two million years ago marked a milestone in human evolution, one that established the social dynamic that allowed our ancestors to expand their range and diet. He challenges the traditional link between aggression and human predation, however, claiming that while aggressive attack is a perfectly efficient way for our chimpanzee cousins to kill prey, it was a hopeless tactic for early human hunters, who—in comparison to their large, potentially dangerous prey—were small, weak, and slow-footed. Technology that evolved from wooden spears to stone-tipped spears and ultimately to the bow and arrow increased the distance between predator and prey and facilitated an emotional detachment that allowed hunters to stalk and kill large game. Based on studies of humans and of other primates, as well as on fossil and archaeological evidence, Rough and Tumble offers a new perspective on human evolution by decoupling ideas of aggression and predation to build a more realistic understanding of what it is to be human.

Book excerpt: Rough and tumble fighting was originally introduced in 1943. Developed by H.E. Kenney as a practical and effective means of self-defense, it was later offered to his students at the University of Illinois. In "Rough and Tumble Fighting," H.E. Kenney delivers an electrifying exploration of the gritty and intense world of hand-to-hand combat. Drawing upon extensive research and personal experience, Kenney unveils the secrets of rough and tumble fighting, a raw and unrefined fighting style that prioritizes survival and victory above all else. With a keen eye for detail and an unwavering dedication to authenticity, he delves into the origins of rough and tumble fighting, tracing its roots to ancient gladiatorial contests and underground brawls. Kenney's expertise shines through as he breaks down the fundamental principles of rough and tumble fighting, including striking techniques, grappling maneuvers, and psychological warfare. With step-by-step instructions and detailed illustrations, he provides readers with the tools they need to enhance their fighting skills and develop an unyielding warrior spirit. An efficient means of defending one's self against attack, all of the basic skills necessary for self-defense are detailed in this book. Most of the bone breaking techniques and the knockout tactics illustrated in this manual are considered "illegal or dirty wrestling holds", or "dirty fighting", but nevertheless effective self-defense skills. Whether you're a seasoned martial artist or a beginner looking to understand the true essence of combat, this book will ignite your passion for the fight. With its unapologetic intensity and unwavering commitment to realism, "Rough and Tumble Fighting" serves as an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to navigate the treacherous world of hand-to-hand combat and emerge victorious.

Download or read book Hooks Trips Throws Takedowns written by [translated] M P Lynch and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Standup wrestling without a gi! What a concept... This is to say that for various reasons standing grappling seems to be given short shrift in the martial arts world, either due to a lack of space, liability issues, or a general indifference regarding how one ends up on the ground, so long as one can work well from there. So it would seem that aside from those who are looking to be pro fighters, standup training will tend to be cursory, and perhaps with good reason. That said it is a fascinating and nuanced game, and fun to watch as we see it survive, albeit in a theatrical form, in the world of professional wrestling. Armand Cherpillod was a great Swiss wrestler who bested the best catch wrestlers in Europe. Despite is modest size he was a "human battery" whose knowledge of the subtleties of grappling was unparalleled. This manual on Hooks, Trips, Throws, and Takedowns offers a small taste of the great wrestler's vast knowledge.

DeBenedet and Lawrence J. Cohen are here to shake things up—literally! With The Art of Roughhousing, they show how rough-and-tumble play can nurture close connections, solve behavior problems, boost confidence, and more.

So put down those electronic games and get ready to rumble!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It felt like a very big deal at the time to go from the Commodore 64 to the Amiga. There were some fantastic games on the C64 but the Amiga felt like a quantum leap and the full 'arcade at home' experience. Sadly though, as we know, the Amiga era was not destined to be the longest or most stable slice of home gaming history. In the end the competition was too much and the Amiga, not helped by poor business decisions and a lack of innovation, began to struggle in the market. One tends to feel that the Amiga never quite fufilled its full potential but what an amazing few years it gave us. I spent many happy hours and weeks playing all my favourite Amiga games. To this day I am still discovering interesting Amiga games which passed me by at the time. Trawling through the Amiga years again I found there were many more great games than I actually remembered. The book that follows includes racing games, shoot 'em ups, military simulations, platform games, licenced movie games, puzzle games, and so on. So, without further delay, let's sit back and take a look at the (in my own humble opinion) 100 greatest Amiga games...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Gabrielle M. Lanier challenges prevailing characterizations of the region as culturally monolithic and reassesses its role in the formation of a distinctly American identity through the history, geography, and architecture of three of the valley's diverse cultural landscapes. Through narratives of individual lives, aggregate data from tax rolls and censuses, archival research, and close analysis of the built vernacular environment, Lanier examines the unique ethnic, class, and religious constitution of each subregion, as well as its racial diversity, political orientation, economic organization, and cultural imprint on the landscape."--Jacket.

Book excerpt: What could a moral and spiritual evolution away from a coercion-based society and towards a voluntary society look like? The Evolution Trilogy creates a universe where just a few individuals taking right action to evade and erode the state can have profound effects. Part one of the trilogy is a near-future, sci-fi comedy spoof of the James Bond franchise, in which James Bong and his ragtag group of anarchists, armed with The Truth, techie tricks, and a full spread of crypto currencies, attempt to wake people up to the true meaning of anarchy. This part of the trilogy is written in t.v. script form for a quick, action-packed read. Part two is a high seas adventure called "SeAgora". This takes place about 50 years after the James Bong conclusion. A thriving anarchist seasteading agora faces increasing aggression from government mafias. Can a young scientist unlock the secrets of faster-than-light propulsion to help the agorists escape to space? Throw in some shape-shifting artificial intellect characters, betrayal, and some power-mad A.I. dictators, and you've got a recipe for supreme adventure. Part three, "Agora One", takes place 500 years after SeAgora. Anarchists from across multiple galaxies are active in a loose, voluntary agora, with jaw-dropping tech and physics-defying speeds. But what happens when the wrong tech reaches a group of statist, alien space pirates?
