Beschreibung:
Jason Thalken Ph.D. in computational condensed matter physics from the University of Southern California, and bachelor’s degrees in physics, mathematics, and philosophy from the University of Texas. He is the inventor on eight patent applications for data science and modeling in the financial services industry, and one patent application for protecting the brain from trauma in such sports as boxing, MMA, and football. Jason has studied and competed in more than eight different martial arts styles since 1995 and has a black belt in hapkido under Grand Master Ho Jin Song.
An in-depth, sometimes whimsical look into the physics behind martial arts for sport and self-defense. Experienced martial artists or curious enthusiasts, this book can give you an unfair advantage by unraveling the science of fighting techniques and examining the core principles that make them work. You will learn the truth about the illusion of safety provided by gloves and helmets, aiding you in reducing traumatic brain injury in martial arts, boxing, and contact sports.
