Описание: In the spring of 1959, eighteen-year-old Bruce Lee returned to San Francisco, the city of his birth. Although the martial arts were widely unknown in America, Bruce encountered a robust fight culture in the Bay Area, populated with talented and trailblazing practitioners such as Lau Bun, Chinatown’s aging kung fu patriarch; Wally Jay, the innovative Hawaiian jujitsu master; and James Lee, the Oakland street fighter. Regarded by some as a brash loudmouth and by others as a dynamic visionary, Bruce spent his first few years back in America advocating for a modern approach to the martial arts, and showing little regard for the damaged egos left in his wake. The year of 1964 would be an eventful one for Bruce, in which he would broadcast his dissenting worldview before the first great international martial arts gathering, and then defend it by facing down Wong Jack Man—Chinatown’s young kung fu ace—in a legendary behind-closed-doors showdown. These events were a catalyst to the dawn of martial arts in America and a prelude to an icon. Based on over one hundred original interviews, Striking Distance chronicles Bruce Lee’s formative days amid the heated martial arts proving ground that thrived on San Francisco Bay in the early 1960s.

There are different alleged emotions as researchers have diverse thoughts about them. Basically, there are seven common emotions, and they are happiness, fear, disgust, surprise, anger, hate, and sadness.
Some secondary emotions are built around these and when added up can round up to over twenty emotions. However, research has further disputed that there are only four emotions and not seven, but this is just categorizing the seven emotions into four.
There is no distinct region in the brain where all our emotions, both positive and negative, are being processed.
The organization of neural networks in the brain, which involves the visual and auditory areas in the temporal and occipital regions, which then processes information coming into the brain generates emotions. Emotions are unconscious.
For example, you see a scary picture on your phone in your home. Even though you are at your home and you are relatively safe, that doesn't stop you from being scared or sometimes screaming.
Being at home does not mean your body won't physiologically respond to the fear with fast heartbeats, dilated pupils, and faster breaths. Before you come to your senses that you are safe, your autonomic nervous system has already triggered your body and put in it the fight-or-flight mode.
This is to explain that our emotions do not automatically translate to how we feel; however, it influences our actions.
Our emotions are more powerful than we think they are because they control our thoughts, and they are the foundations for more thoughts to come.
The fact that our emotions show up before we think is very helpful in threatening situations because our bodies would have taken action before our brain has the time to think about it. At this point, our emotions motivate our decision to either fight or run.
in this book I will show you exactly how to manage your emotions perfectly so as to live more serenely and overcome negativity. Enjoy the reading

The Fairbairn's system was based on his training and knowledge in boxing, wrestling, savate, jujutsu, judo and fights he was involved in during his police work, Fairbairn began to develop his own system of hand to hand combat, initially referring it as "Defendu". It was designed to be simple to learn and to provide effective results. Fairbairn published his book, Defendu, in 1926 2] (reprinted as Scientific Self Defence in 1931), illustrating this method and it is here that the term "Defendu" first appeared This confused early readers of the book, who assumed that the techniques within had been based mainly in the Eastern martial arts that Fairbairn had learned. Thus, in an attempt to highlight the originality of Fairbairn's material, the term did not appear in the 1931 edition of the book.
Fairbairn was called upon by the British to help train Allied troops in World War II. Fairbairn and others expanded on this system to create the Close Quarters Combat system that was then taught to the troops. This system was built on Defendu, but modified for military applications, rather than police and riot control.
The original Defendu was oriented towards self-defence and restraint, while the Close Quarters Combat system concentrated on rapid disabling of an opponent, with potentially lethal force. The militarised version of Defendu is described in the military manual All in fighting 1942, used as a supplement during WW2 CQB-training. This book was later published in a civilian edition, missing the chapters on bayonet-fighting and rifle sighting, under the name Get Tough How To Win In Hand-To-Hand Fighting. As Taught To The British Commandos And The U.S. Armed Forces. Fairbairn's CQC-system is also described in Rex Applegate's book Kill or Get Killed.
