Verbal Judo is the martial art of the mind and mouth that can show you how to be better prepared in every verbal encounter. Listen and speak more effectively, engage people through empathy (the most powerful word in the English language), avoid the most common conversational disasters, and use proven strategies that allow you to successfully communicate your point of view and take the upper hand in most disputes. Verbal Judo offers a creative look at conflict that will help you defuse confrontations and generate cooperation from your spouse, your boss, and even your teenager. As the author says, "when you react, the event controls you. When you respond, you’re in control." This new edition features a fresh new cover and a foreword demonstrating the legacy of Verbal Judo founder and author George Thompson, as well as a never-before-published final chapter presenting Thompson’s "Five Universal Truths" of human interaction.

Written to answer the beginner's basic questions, An Introduction to Judo, provides comprehensive information about this Japanese Martial Art. 5th Dan black belt Gary Murray outlines Judo's relevance to everyday life, not only as a method of self defence, but also as a way of improving health and developing personal awareness confidence and discipline. Other aspects covered include: - How Judo is taught and learned - History and philosophy - Basic principles and techniques - Differences between traditional and sport Judo - Advice of finding a club and instructor In the 21st Century, martial arts world-wide have combined to create a multi-million dollar industry. Annual subscriptions, the sale of equipment, as well as government financial aid has resulted in colossal amounts of money changing hands every year. Unfortunately, this trend has encouraged a severe degradation of the fundamental principles of certain martial arts, with a modern emphasis directed to winning sporting tournaments. According to Judo Master Sakujiro Yokoyama ?If you practise Judo as a sport you are making a big mistake? An Introduction to Judo examines the creation and expansion of one of the world's most popular Japanese martial arts. By explaining the traditional aims and philosophy of the founder, Dr Jigoro Kano, the Author hopes readers will appreciate that the ultimate aim of the art of Judo (the Gentle Way) was never intended to be success in sporting tournaments, rather the development of the character of its participants.
