Ellis Amdur Books

Ellis Amdur's writing uniquely bridges the worlds of crisis intervention and traditional Japanese martial arts, drawing from his extensive experience as a crisis intervention specialist and a lifelong practitioner of martial traditions. He masterfully illustrates principles of verbal de-escalation, tactical communication, and esoteric knowledge through his own often extraordinary experiences. Amdur's work is distinguished by its blend of hair-raising anecdotes, solid research, and practical, boots-on-the-ground insight. This fusion offers readers a compelling and deeply informed perspective on managing aggression and understanding hidden depths within various disciplines.
