There are two books that I think every person that is interested in self defense should have. They are,
Violence of Mind by Varg Freeborn
and
The Law of Self Defense by Andrew Branca (free on the Law of Self Defense site, you pay S&H)
Now I am adding a third book to that must have list, it is, Deadly Force Encounters by Alexis Artwohl PhD and Loren Christensen.
I came to hear about Dr Artwohl through Mas Ayoob.
While the book is directed at law enforcment there is cross over for non law enforcement as well. At almost 500 pages there isn't much that isn't covered.
