Quick Defense is a practical guide to personal protection built around one important reality: when a dangerous situation develops quickly, complexity becomes a liability.

Drawing from decades of training and instructional experience, David Burnell focuses on simple, usable defensive principles that can be understood, practiced, and recalled under stress. The book emphasizes awareness, positioning, movement, rapid decision-making, efficient defensive responses, and recognizing danger early enough to act before a situation fully develops.

The goal is not to collect complicated techniques. It is to build a small number of reliable habits that support better judgment when fear, adrenaline, and time pressure make clear thinking more difficult.

Quick Defense is designed for readers who want a straightforward approach to self-protection—one that prioritizes simplicity, practicality, and the ability to respond with purpose when circumstances change fast.
