OUTSTANDING

The book covers it all. If you want to protect yourself from crime then this book is mandatory reading.

Good ideas

Common sense--- but often we do not think of these things with our busy lives. It is sad to have to be so wary but life is a crap shoot when it comes to crime possibly taking place, so prevention is the better option. this is all about prevention w/ a few self defense ideas. Nothing new here but overall a good read and practical.
