Synopsis
Ancient self defence strategies for the modern caveman - the non-violent guide to violence, self defence and personal safety. How Not to Get Hit takes you on an irreverent journey through the world of self defence and aggression in today's society, with half an eye on our evolutionary past and a key message that you don't have to learn to fight to stay safe, any more than a gazelle needs boxing gloves to escape from a lion. Self defence isn't a series of techniques or moves; it's an attitude, a strategy, a life skill. And it's one you already have.
