Our friend "Raffish" is not only a medical doctor, a black belt in karate, but an anatomy professor whose hobby is combining karate with anatomy. His first book "Breaking Points" is a scholarly treatise on how to react when threatened physically. If you want to know how to kill someone, with little danger of getting hurt yourself, I recommend it. "Self defense" rarely brings trouble to the defender, ahem, from a legal point of view.
His second book "Cereus and the Rarest Thing" is biographical in nature and takes readers on a beautifully described tour of Okinawa, arguably the first to practice the sport. Both books are available through amazon.com
His newest project is a You Tube video describing the anatomical side of karate. You can see it (and "Raffish") by Googling "anatomy of fist and skull - YouTube."
