Can I See your Hands: A Guide To Situational Awareness, Personal Risk Management, Resilience and Security

You hold in your hands an amazing book, unlike any other on the subject. Many good books have been written about the critically important topic of protecting yourself and your loved ones from violence. And the best of these have been integrated and applied in this book. Consider, just this one aspect of what Dr Gav Schneider has done to make this the best possible book on this subject. You will find many books on many topics that seem to operate in a vacuum. But the best books on any subject are those that "stand on the shoulders of giants" and build on that which has already been written, skillfully weaving these together with new information and new insight, to create a book that is greater than the sum of its parts. And that is what Gav has done in this book, incorporating, applying, and recommending some of the great works that have been previously written on this vital subject.
