About this item

Somewhere in America right now are four or five women who will be killed tomorrow. They are going about their day, and I know if they were prepared to counter attack in the ways Loren Christensen and Lisa Place teach, they'd have a far better chance of prevailing tomorrow. " Gavin de Becker (from his Foreword) , best-selling author of The Gift of Fear. Some experts say you should be submissive when attacked at home or by a stranger. You won t find that advice here, although you might use it as a ruse before you claw your assailant s eyes and smash his groin. Your ultimate goal is to get away, but you don t achieve that by being meek and docile. You get away by drawing on that hardwired survival instinct to attack him like an enraged lioness protecting her babies.
