Our guns, ammunition, and holsters are better than ever. So are state-of-the-art techniques that have been developed from modern and “post-modern” studies of what happens to the human mind and body under life-threatening stress. Better than ever also is our understanding of courtroom dynamics as they apply today in the often terrifying aftermath of the justified use of deadly force.

These skills are needed today. Since September 11, 2001, many experts believe they will be needed more than ever. The continued ability to choose to develop these skills, and exercise them if we must, is constantly under attack. It will be a long, hard fight, perhaps a never-ending one, but in the last analysis, that is the nature of the human experience.

I hope you find this book useful. If something seems new and radical compared to older “doctrine,” try it yourself before you decide. I can promise you that there is nothing recommended in this book that has not been proven where it counts.

Stay safe.
