Principles are the reasons why techniques work... or don't. There are hundreds of thousands of techniques, but they all rely on a relatively small set of principles: Breaking the balance, distributing your weight, conserving energy, applying leverage... Once you know and understand the major principles behind grappling techniques, new techniques become easier to learn, all techniques become clearer, and your ability to make the techniques work for you will increase as well. Understanding HOW, WHY, and WHEN the moves work will bring your grappling to a new level. Every decent grappling book will cover some principles along with techniques, but I have never found a book explaining principles and concepts into any kind of depth. This book is meant to bridge that gap and concentrates on principles and concepts, along with explanations, examples and illustrations. Even though my own background is in Judo, BJJ and Karate, these principles are common to all grappling arts, from Judo and BJJ to Sambo, Wrestling, Catch, Luta Livre, etc. I hope you will find value in it. There are also added a couple bonus chapters in this edition covering fundamentals of anatomy and strategy for grapplers. If you are interested in my take on these subjects, please let me know.

Fortunes have been made with cryptocurrencies... and lost... and made again. What is this all about? What are cryptocurrencies? How do they work? And what's the point anyway? Don't we already have real money? Why are people spending real cash to buy cryptos? Is it just a scam, a bubble, a get rich quick scheme, or a valid innovation? And the big one: if there is money to be made, how do I get started? How can you trade in cryptos?This book will give you an easy and practical overview of cryptocurrencies, explain how they fit in our global economy, the role they play and arm you with the essential knowledge you need to start trading if you decide to do so.

Chess was created as a pastime, but also as a way to learn and practice warfare strategies and tactics. It should, therefore, come as no surprise that many of the principles used in Chess have very practical applications on the mat, in the ring or in the cage. The goal of this book is not to provide you with instructions to follow step by step but to give you an opportunity to consider your own strategies under a different light.This book will help you develop better strategies and expand your knowledge as a martial artist, with practical examples taken from Judo, Muay Thai, BJJ and Boxing.Good luck!
