5.0 out of 5 stars
Clear, concise, necessary information for women,
By A Customer
This review is from: Not an Easy Target: Paxton Quigley's Self-Protection for Women (Paperback)
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.
