An abusive husband pounding on the door. A disgruntled employee brandishing a gun. These days, no one is safe from the specter of violence. But according to Gavin de Becker, everyone can feel safer, act safer, be safer -- if they learn how to listen to their own sixth sense about danger. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDe Becker has made a career of protecting people and predicting violent behavior. His firm handles security for many of the leading figures in Hollywood and Silicon Valley, and his computerized risk-assessment system helps analyze threats to members of Congress and the Supreme Court. Now, in this unprecedented guide, de Becker shares his expertise with everyone. Covering all the dangerous situations people typically face -- street crime, domestic abuse, violence in the workplace -- de Becker provides real-life examples and offers specific advice on restraining orders, self-defense, and more. But the key to self-protection, he demonstrates, is learning how to trust our own intuitions. For everyone who's ever felt threatened, this book is essential reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gavin de Becker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0316235024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780316235020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Little Brown and Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/1997 pg. 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/19\/1997 pg. 59\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/1997 pg. 711\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/1997 pg. 58\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/1997 pg. 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/1997 pg. 1628\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/1997","brand":"Gavin de Becker","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44050447597823,"sku":"9780316235020","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ad0e89a5-5bfb-448b-a08b-6970cf74955c.jpg?v=1685007280","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-gift-of-fear-gavin-de-becker-9780316235020","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
