Every pastor needs it in his reference library! In fact, as our churches are flooded with seeking souls, we all need this book. This gripping and powerful story testifies how one woman who was enmeshed in the martial arts was rescued from darkness, despair, and bondage and brought to light, hope, and freedom in Jesus Christ. The book also offers many useful resources, including a special appendix that addresses 'hard' questions, such as the use of martial arts' techniques for police, the military, women, and children.

Les brings his insight and energy into examining the underbelly of Karate, especially its culture, practices, and manipulation of tradition. Herein Les lays bare Karate's scams, liars, and ego driven manipulations. Les shares how organisations demanded and expected him to promote their agenda but only among those they deemed acceptable. Likewise, he sheds light on the darkness of insufferable myopia that many Karate organisations have and the vengeance they seek upon those who were once part of their sacred flock. Karate in this book smells of death - its lack of honour.

The first book in English by an acclaimed Danish writer: "beautiful, faceted, haunting stories . . . [from] a rising star" (Junot Díaz) Karate Chop, Dorthe Nors's acclaimed story collection, is the debut book in the collaboration between Graywolf Press and A Public Space. These fifteen compact stories are meticulously observed glimpses of everyday life that expose the ominous lurking under the ordinary. While his wife sleeps, a husband prowls the Internet, obsessed with female serial killers; a bureaucrat tries to reinvent himself, exposing goodness as artifice when he converts to Buddhism in search of power; a woman sits on the edge of the bed where her lover lies, attempting to locate a motive for his violence within her own self-doubt. Shifting between moments of violence (real and imagined) and mundane contemporary life, these stories encompass the complexity of human emotions, our capacity for cruelty as well as compassion. Not so much minimalist as stealthy, Karate Chop delivers its blows with an understatement that shows a master at work.

With few exceptions, scholarship on creativity has focused on its positive aspects while largely ignoring its dark side. This includes not only creativity deliberately aimed at hurting others, such as crime or terrorism, or at gaining unfair advantages, but also the accidental negative side effects of well-intentioned acts. This book brings together essays written by experts from various fields (psychology, criminal justice, sociology, engineering, education, history, and design) and with different interests (personality development, mental health, deviant behavior, law enforcement, and counter-terrorism) to illustrate the nature of negative creativity, examine its variants, call attention to its dangers, and draw conclusions about how to prevent it or protect society from its effects.
