Description: Published in 1986 by Unique Publications, the Advanced Balisong Manual by Jeff Imada is a continuation of Imada's popular book the Balisong Manual.
Review: Taking up where the Balisong Manual left off, the Advanced Balisong Manual contains more advanced manipulation techniques. This book seems to concentrate a lot more on self-defense and manipulation techniques than the first one did as there are a lot more picture guides demonstrating these techniques. It does, however, contain some duplicate information regarding knife safety and balisong laws for those who did not read the first book.
One of the more useful additions to this book is the rather extensive section at the end of the book which contains pictures and model numbers of many balisongs. This is a good guide for identifying models of older balisongs. Other notable additions are those sections on balisong care and refurbishing.

The book provides an up-to-date guide to the techniques and applications of inertial navigation for use by both practicing engineers and post-graduate students. The book satisfies a need for a book on the subject of inertial navigation that provides both an introduction to the techniques involved as well as information on modern technological developments, combined with a more rigorous mathematical treatment for the reader wishing to explore the subject in greater depth. The text describes the basic concepts of inertial navigation with particular emphasis on modern strapdown system technology, providing detailed information on system mechanizations, instrumentation and computational aspects, design analysis, and applications of such systems. In particular, the text provides up-to-date information on inertial sensor technology and inertial navigation system computational techniques, bringing together the broad experience of the authors within a single volume. The text contains both descriptive passages and also mathematical details where appropriate. MEMS is the focus of much research and development activity at the present time; this technology offers rugged and reliable sensors with a performance capability that lends itself to integration with satellite navigation systems. This second edition has been updated in a number of areas to reflect ongoing developments in the field of inertial navigation technology. In addition to a number of refinements covering sensor technology, Read more...

This unique textbook offers an invaluable starting point in learning both the art and science of brief psychotherapy. Unlike other references, which review current literature and cover all of the many schools of brief therapy in current use, this compact text is packed with practical information that shows both what to do and why to do it, so that beginning therapists can start to think like brief therapists in their own work. Based on more than a decade of extensive teaching experience, the editors of this practical guideAanother immediately useful tool in the Core Competencies in Psychotherapy seriesAtake you step by step through every approach, describing therapies and specific interventions and including detailed case examples to illustrate how they are implemented. -The introduction answers basic questions about how to define, when to use, and why and how to learn brief therapy. -Part I, Six Key Brief Psychotherapies, begins with the highly structured cognitive, behavioral, and solution-focused therapies and continues with interpersonal, time-limited dynamic, and couples therapies. -Part II, Special Topics, covers identifying the essential ingredients of brief therapy, conducting brief therapy in a multicultural context, combining brief therapy with medications, and evaluating competency in brief therapy. -Part III, Overview and Synthesis, proposes three skill sets-relationship, instrumental, and change agency-that form the backbone of what it means to be a competent pra Read more...
