The Gift of Fear

Survival Signals That Protect Us from Violence...from a professional in a position to know.

Gavin De Becker's personal back story is harrowing. His career as a protector of the rich and famous is legendary. In The Gift of Fear he makes a contribution to the survival, safety, and well-being of average people - especially our mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters - that is difficult to overestimate. I'm more than a little embarrassed that I, a security practitioner, haven't read his book until now.  If you haven't read this book, whether you ply the security trade or not, you should.
