reviewed Combat, Ritual, And Performance on September 17, 2009
Combat
Jones has taken on the hero's labor of identifying and utilizing scant resources. He assembles this all into a quite plausible holism making this a great anthropological jump into the world of martial arts. This text has done well to lay the foundation for, I hope, continued research in the subject.
