Date rape. Purse snatching. Car jacking. Mugging. Terrorism. This world can be a dangerous place.

Now police officer David Garcia and former Navy SEAL Stewart Smith show you how to protect yourself. Together they have created the premier instruction book on effective personal protection, Common Sense Self-Defense: 7 Techniques That Can Save Your Life.

This book presents an intelligent approach to self-defense that anyone–spouse, son, daughter, mother, brother, sister–can use in times of trouble. Common Sense Self-Defense is a basic program that takes only minutes a week to practice, as opposed to a martial arts program, which takes several hours a day to master.

This book offers options and techniques, as well as a sure-fire method of analyzing the inherent danger of any situation. The program presents effective physical techniques to aid in surviving almost any predicament, plus ways to avoid potentially life threatening scenarios.

No matter how little you know about defending yourself, this book will teach you everything you need to escape or survive an attack. 100 b/w photos.
