This book could be described as a manual for the paranoid. In our surveillance society a little paranoia is good sense. You never know what survival situation you may be forced into. This book is a black bag of tricks and tips to give you the confidence to face practically anything from self defense to escaping dangerous situations. A five star rating from me.

This book takes bad situations and gives ways of dealing with them. It really makes you think about possible trouble and you can then figure out your own solutions of adaptations. From modern Molotov Cocktails to how to break a roadblock, lots of good stuff and lots of ideas for novelists and screenwriters as well. Some of it is things those of us with combat experience know, like what part of your arm takes knife cuts best, while some of it is McGiever-like innovation.
