德贝克尔的职业是保护人们并预测暴力行为。他的公司为好莱坞和硅谷的许多主要人物提供安全保障，他的计算机化风险评估系统有助于分析对国会议员和最高法院的威胁。现在，在这个前所未有的指南中，德贝克尔与所有人分享了他的专业知识。de Becker涵盖了人们通常面临的所有危险情况-街头犯罪，家庭暴力，工作场所暴力-de Becker提供了现实生活中的例子，并提供了关于限制命令，自卫等方面的具体建议。但他证明，自我保护的关键是学习如何相信自己的直觉。对于曾经感到受到威胁的每个人，这本书都是必读的。A carjacker lurking in a shopping mall parking lot. 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.

De 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.
