DESCRIPTION:
"Good Overview of Isler's BPC system, and a good addtion to a SD resource library" according to Alain B. Burrese. "Modern Hand To Hand Combat" by Hakim Isler is a book about the military combative system Isler developed, which he calls "The Effective Battlefield Proximity Combat Training System."

Isler relates it to ancient samurai techniques that were used on the battlefield, thus the pictures of combatants dressed as Samurai and combatants with modern military uniforms being compared. I say the book is "about" the system, because it really does focus more on the theory behind the system, and why he teaches certain things, more than teaching the actual system. Yes, there are some techniques. "Highly recommend for today's warrior!" according to Mike Hoffman. Spent the weekend reading Mr. Hakim Isler's new book, Modern Hand to Hand Combat.
