During the 1980s, FBI special agents traveled around the country to conduct death row interviews with 198 of them. The FBI agents from Quantico gained valuable insights into a predator's mindset. This information formed the basis of a new field of study called behavioral profiling. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis face-to-face research continues today. Thousands of serial rapists and sexual murderers have disclosed tricks of the trade to criminal profilers and forensic psychiatrists. But what the professionals discovered about their modus operandi has never been made available to those who need it most-their prey-and Alison Summers wants to change that. She spent seven years collecting material from FBI behavioral profilers, and forensic psychologists and psychiatrists, and then she condensed a treasure trove of lifesaving information into this easy-to-read guide for women and girls.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eExperts believe a predator's best weapon is surprise. In this book, Summers takes that weapon away. Using real-life cases, prison interviews, and testimonies by rape survivors, Summers analyzes elements that are needed for the criminal's plan to succeed, and how we might outwit him. She shows us how to view people and hunting grounds through predatory eyes, and lists simple precautions that have saved lives. The author reveals the most popular ruses and verbal persuasions predators to use to win a victim's trust. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Girl's Guide to a Criminal Mind\u003c\/i\u003e is an original and powerful survival guide for women and girls who want to take back the night.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alison Summers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1523902345\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781523902347\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/04\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.29d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alison Summers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43940184588543,"sku":"9781523902347","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a520fce1-8d95-4652-806c-5569599cae0e.jpg?v=1681445735","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-girls-guide-to-the-alison-summers-9781523902347","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
