Traditions: Essays on the Japanese Martial Arts and Ways

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lowry, Dave, PUBLISHER: Tuttle Publishing, The goals of the budo -- the martial arts and ways of Japan lie in refining the body and spirit. These goals are not always the obvious ones -- and are learned only through the guidance and direction of great teachers. The techniques, methods, and rituals of the sensei can serve as guides to a well-lived life -- and provide invaluable lessons for today's martial artists. This collection of ong>essaysong> includes discussions of: The spirit of ryomi, the process of self-evaluation and improvement -- as illustrated in the story of Kaofujita, a master swordsman who never stopped practicing the first movement he learned. The importance of yuyo -- the distance where an attacker must focus his strike -- from the story of Jubei, where his mastery and control of yuyo determined his victory. The significance of ma -- the space in time between successive attacks or between a defense and a counter -- through the story of Yamada Shinryukan, whose exploitation of ma led him to his death. With its focus on traditional martial arts, and fascinating stories that illustrate key martial arts principles, ong>Traditionsong> will be required reading for serious martial artists.

The Ways of Paradox and Other Essays, Revised Edition

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Quine, W. V., PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, This expanded edition of "The Ways of Paradox" includes papers that are among Professor Quine's most important and influential, such as "Truth by Convention," "Carnap and Logical Truth," "On Carnap's Views on Ontology," "The Scope and Language of Science," and "Posits and Reality." Many of these ong>essaysong> deal with unresolved issues of central interest to philosophers today. About half of them are addressed to "a wider public than philosophers." The remainder are somewhat more professional and technical. This new edition of "The Ways of Paradox" contains eight ong>essaysong> that appeared after publication of the first edition, and it retains the seminal ong>essaysong> that must be read by anyone who seeks to master Quine's philosophy. Quine has been characterized, in "The New York Review of Books," as "the most distinguished American recruit to logical empiricism, probably the contemporary American philosopher most admired in the profession, and an original philosophical thinker of the first rank." His "philosophical innovations add up to a coherent theory of knowledge which he has for the most part constructed single-handed." In "The Ways of Paradox" new generations of readers will gain access to this philosophy.

The Unknown Karen Horney: Essays on Gender, Culture, and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Horney, Karen / Paris, Bernard, PUBLISHER: Yale University Press, This volume of writings by the distinguished psychoanalyst Karen Horney () completes the publication of her unpublished and uncollected work. It includes pieces on feminine psychology and the relations between the sexes as well as on other aspects of psychoanalytic theory. The editor's introductions set these works in context, showing their significance for Horney's thought and their relation to her other writings. The material in Part 1 provides an important supplement to Feminine Psychology, the book that established Horney as the first great psychoanalytic feminist. It reveals aspects of Horney's early thought not fully developed elsewhere, along with the views about feminine psychology and the relations between the sexes that reflect her later thinking. Part 2 deepens our understanding of the final two phases of Karen Horney's thought -- her break with Freud and proposal of a new psychoanalytic paradigm in the s, and her mature theory, developed in the s. In presenting eighteen previously unpublished pieces, four ong>essaysong> that have not been available in English, and other texts that have been difficult to locate, this collection makes accessible an important segment of Horney's work.

Palladio's Children: Essays on Everyday Environment and the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Habraken, N. J. / Teicher, Jonathan, PUBLISHER: Routledge, Based on many years of personal observation, Palladio's Children critically examines the role of the architect as a professional descendent of Palladio, and as an heir to his architectural legacy. Seven innovative and carefully crafted ong>essaysong> explore the widening ideological schism between today's architects whose core values, identity and education remain rooted in the Renaissance legacy of creating artful 'masterpieces', and the practical demands on a profession which acts within an evolving, ubiquitous and autonomous built environment or 'field'. Clearly written yet expressing complex, evolving ideas, this extended argument opens a new forum of debate across design theory, professional practice and academic issues. Moving the subject on from a historical perspective, Habraken shows how architects are increasingly involved in the design of everyday buildings. This must lead to a reassessment of architects' identities, values and education, and the contribution of the architect in the shaping of the built environment.

SPS The Defender Martial Arts Training Protection Full Body

'the Defender'  fromSports Protection Systems Martial Arts and Self Defense Modular training system. Why? In martial arts classes we are taught self-defense. Most accidents occur when a beginner or a person with ‘limited experience’ does not know how to control his feet or fists and invariably makes too much contact. We are therefore taught to ‘pull our punches’ in order not to hurt the person we are training with. This has the effect of: a)      Training our ‘muscle memory’ to stop short of the target so this becomes a reflex – we never hit our target. b)      Always striking ‘air’ – this is a different feeling to striking an object. Obviously pads can be used – however these are not always hit as any pad holder will tell you. c)       Self defense training methods / Scenarios become unrealistic if you can only strike where the pad is being held. The Defender allows instructors to create more realistic self defense programs. The Defender can help to create a scenario which is closer to reality so that you can get a ‘true’ reaction to a more ‘realistic / threatening’ experience whilst still maintaining ‘personal safety’. * To see The Defender in action please check out these links https: youtu.be/WKAa7ZELtLA https: youtu.be/NFu1XmEZohA https: youtu.be/R2i8Xwn_4AU (Copy and paste the youtube links into your browser) The Defender Full Multi Component System Features a)      Simple to put on. b)      Ease of use which will reflect in a ‘truer’ simulation of an attack. More realistic scenarios can be played out – it is amazing how the mind reacts differently when someone is running at you ! c)       Modular – adaptable to whatever training system is being used. This allows different levels of protection which can be applied depending on the training methods undertaken. d) Fully adjustable - can fit variety of instructors from medium build to large. Who Needs This? a)      Martial Arts classes – who train Children & adults. Great for Beginners and the Experienced! Extra Benefits to Martial arts classes: ‘Wow’ factor – The system looks like a future warrior / comic book character - Children’s classes are always larger than adults – children will tell their friends who will want to come to the classes – increasing revenue schemes for club owners. b)      Police, Security, Military training c)  Self Defense training Organisations – Growing trend for Workplace safety – when members of staff are in the front line dealing with customers whom can become aggressive – Social security office, traffic wardens, medical sales reps etc * this system should only be used under supervision of a trained instructor For more'Impact'  series clothing and quality products from other brands please check out our other items
