Customer Rating:
Summary: Mostly about defense without using a gun.
Comment: I was disappointed because I was looking for information about defense using a gun. This book says little about self defense using a gun. It is mostly about other forms of defense not using a gun. If that is what you are looking for it is a ok book.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good information for Women and Men
Comment: I have read this book several times along wtih Armed and Female and Stayin Alive. I had my wife read this and it changed her mind about gun ownership and self defense. She now has a pistol and we train together at the range every two weeks. Thanks Paxton for providing such an eye opener and for helping my wife make the decision to protect herself. I recommend this book for everyone.

Summary: I learned a lot
Comment: I have to say, I was very impressed with this book. I work a job that would be considered unsafe for just about anybody. I am a Home visit nurse. I travel at night to unknown areas, sometimes in the worst part of town. I have been doing this for years, and I guess in my own way got "comfortable" with it. There were a lot of things I hadn't thought about in protecting myself and this book really was an eyeopener. Women can be attacked at anytime and anywhere, it can be during the day, nice well lit areas, or at night. I wasn't really sure what to do in a dangerous situation. Although it is ultimately up to us, this gives you great ideas for safety, protection and awareness of your environment. I sure am glad to have this book!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great, practical advice for all women
Comment: This book is great!! Buy it for your mothers, daughters, sisters, girlfriend, any woman who is near and dear to you. It has a lot of practical information on keeping yourself safe in our crazy world. I'm giving it to my sister and mom for Christmas! It applies not only to women, but to any person.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Clear, concise, necessary information for women
Comment: This book was a gift from my brother. I read the intro and couldn't put it down! Quigley writes well, gives excellent examples and reasonable measures any of us can take to improve our awareness and our sense of security. This book, along with Gavin de Becker's books (Gift of Fear and Protecting the Gift) are great gift ideas for women and parents. Very empowering.
