True fear is often a signal that can save your life. Are you listening?
The baby-sitter you've just hired makes you uneasy--what should you do?
You sense you are being followed --do you confront the stranger...or run?
A fired employee says "You'll be sorry"--should you take him seriously?
A person in the elevator you are about to enter just doesn't look right--do you ...
True fear is often a signal that can save your life. Are you listening?
The baby-sitter you've just hired makes you uneasy--what should you do?
You sense you are being followed --do you confront the stranger...or run?
A fired employee says "You'll be sorry"--should you take him seriously?
A person in the elevator you are about to enter just doesn't look right--do you wait for the next car?
A date won't take "no" for an answer. The new nanny gives a mother an uneasy feeling. A stranger in a deserted parking lot offers unsolicited help. The threat of violence surrounds us every day. But we can protect ourselves, by learning to trust--and act on--our gut instincts. In this empowering book, Gavin de Becker, the man Oprah Winfrey calls the nation's leading expert on violent behavior, shows you how to spot even subtle signs of danger--before it's too late. Shattering the myth that most violent acts are unpredictable, de Becker, whose clients include top Hollywood stars and government agencies, offers specific ways to protect yourself and those you love, including...how to act when approached by a stranger...when you should fear someone close to you...what to do if you are being stalked...how to uncover the source of anonymous threats or phone calls...the biggest mistake you can make with a threatening person...and more. Learn to spot the danger signals others miss. It might just save your life.

看完本书与最近美国枪击血案后的感想

同样糟糕的童年,有人成了罪犯,有人却成了专家

女人,请相信自己的直觉

怎样高水平地做到"当断则断"?

学会切断关系,和学会连接关系同样重要 1.首先明确一个观点:结束一段关系的首要前提是尊重。作为提出“分手”的一方,你在心理上的准备一般比“被分手”的一方要足。比如,你作为管理者要解雇一名员工,那员工的实际损失和心理打击相对要更大。所以,在分手前,你要想好怎样照... (展开)

Identity is the pass card to inclusion, and inclusion is the key to survival. The loss of identity is a type of death all by itself.

自我保护主题很好,作者总结了很多很实用的tips,就是车轱辘话太多,读起来略费劲

幾點得著。暴力事件,往往不是隨機發生,也不是無跡可尋的。病態思維的人,和我們遵循至少是類似的生命法則,明白「他們中有我們,我們中有他們」可以幫助我們預測和脫離危險。最後,「恐懼」和「擔憂」是不同的,前者是與生死存亡有關的「恩賜」,後者則是毫無邏輯的庸人自擾,這個區分頗有見地。

整本书都在举各种例子描述人的本能对自我保护有多重要,但是没有更具体的关于如何正确判断并应用本能来保护自己的方法指导,感觉只说了一半该说的,隔靴搔痒
