This book was absolutely fascinating and filled with exceptionally practical, great advice. I didn't read the book for the physical safety part, although I felt it does a great job there. I read it for the inner, emotional safety part. It provides practical advice in a clear, concise manner on how to maintain energy, alertness and effectively handle negative emotions and negative people. It's well worth the money.

I wonder if anybody could really follow up what this book tried to deliver. Obviously, this was only a book written by two white-shoe scholars who never met any realistic danger in the streets but reading dangerous happenings everyday on the newspapers. If I really bought what this books theories(only theories), and really got into trouble with some attackers or assailants and trying to use the techniques(if they are techniques), I definitely would get killed right on the spot! This was a one-way-thought-so, or think-to-be personal safety textbook, but would only get people killed. I also almost got killed by the authors' zigzagging, circling-around-at-the-same-spot writing style, and felt dizzy all the time tring very hard not to lose focus. A terrible, horrible read! By the way, if I follow what the guy said in his foreword to blindly praise this book and really giving this book to everyone I know, I may lose their friendship permanently
