The title of this book was very specifically chosen. Unlike many books, even ones I have written in the past, which are intended for a wide audience, the focus of this work is specific.
"Kill or Be Killed". Those words are sincere. We practice and train not to fight. We hope never to be in a life or death situation; however, the notion of this book is that in the event an attack is inevitable we must be prepared to defend ourselves and our loved ones at all costs. We take this responsibility seriously; violence is our last resort.
"Real World Self-Defense For Tae Kwon Do Masters". This audience is specific. With defending oneself so severely the task is daunting and requires discipline, maturity, and serious training. That is why this book is intended for those practitioners that have achieved the role of Mastery of their art. This is not a book for the casual practitioner. With the title of Master, or Sabumnim, comes the responsibility to understand that on the street our actions have consequences; both for ourselves, and for the people that may choose to do harm to us. It is written for an audience that does not attack, or defend, with impunity, but with an understanding of the measure of the threat and the result and consequences of the response.
