The indigenous martial arts of the Philippines archipelago are known by a variety of names including Arnis, Arnis de Mano, Eskrima or Escrima, and are widely respected for the development of combat-effective defensive strategies and skills. The Filipino martial arts are fast and dynamic and utilise a diverse range of training methods to augment the journey towards achieving advance abilities in defending against weapons-based or empty-hand encounters. Supplemented by over 320 colour photographs, this exciting book explores the fundamental, intermediate and advanced techniques of double and single stick categories that are standard across many systems of the Filipino martial arts. A methodological breakdown of the basics of each technique is provided, and possible approaches to advancement and development are presented using a range of both individual and partner-based activities. Each outline also takes into consideration the potential for applying the technique in various scenarios, from emtpy-handed to multiple weapons categories, with an emphasis on adaptability and versatility. Foreword by Grandmaster Reynaldo S. Galang.

This monograph constitutes the first comprehensive investigation of reciprocal constructions and related phenomena in the world’s languages. Reciprocal constructions (of the type The two boys hit each other, The poets admire each other’s poems) have often been the subject of language-particular studies, but it is only in this work that a truly global comparative picture emerges. Nine stage-setting chapters dealing with general and theoretical matters are followed by 40 chapters containing in-depth descriptions of reciprocals in individual languages by renowned specialists. The introductory papers provide a conceptual and terminological framework that allows the authors of the individual chapters to characterize their languages in comparable terms, making it easy for the reader to see points of commonality between languages and constructions that have never been compared before. This set of volumes is an indispensable starting point and will be a lasting reference work for any future studies of reciprocals.

Nasa pangunahing turo ng Iglesia Filipina Independiente (IFI) na ang Biblia ay ang dapat na maging gabay sa pananampalataya, at higit na dapat bigyang pansin dito ang pinakamahalagang salita ng Tagapagligtas: “Ibigin mo ang Panginoon mong Diyos nang buong puso, nang buong kaluluwa, at nang buong pag-iisip. Ito ang pinakamahalagang utos. Ito naman ang pangalawa: Ibigin mo ang iyong kapwa gaya ng iyong sarili. Sa dalawang utos na ito nakasalalay ang buong Kautusan ni Moises at ang turo ng mga propeta.” (Mateo 22:37-40). Ito ang mga unang katagang binibigkas sa Binyag ng IFI. Ang Makabayang Simbahang Filipinista/Aglipayano ay naniniwala na ang mapagmahal na Panginoon ay ganap at tunay na Panginoon (at hindi ang "makapangyarihang mananakop"), lahat ay magpapahalaga sa kautusang “mahalin ang kapwa” at ito ay tiyak na magbubunga ng mapayapang mundo. Nakasulat, “Wala nang ibang utos na hihigit pa sa mga ito” (Marcos 12: 31). Lahat ay nakasalalay sa dalawang utos na ito!
