À propos de cet audio
A special edition of The Gift of Fear, with a new foreword by the author.
A stranger in a deserted parking lot offers to help carry a woman's groceries. Is he a good Samaritan, or is he after something else? A fired employee says "You'll be sorry". Will he return with a gun? After their first date, a man tells a woman it is their "destiny" to be married. What will he do when she won't see him again? A mother has an uneasy feeling about the nice babysitter she's just hired. Should she not go to work today?
These days, no one in America feels immune to violence. But now, in this extraordinary, groundbreaking book, the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior unlocks the puzzle of human violence and shows that, like every creature on earth, we have within us the ability to predict the harm others might do us and get out of its way. Contrary to popular myth, human violence almost always has a discernible motive and is preceded by clear warning signs.
Through dozens of compelling examples from his own career, Gavin de Becker teaches us how to read the signs, using our most basic but often most discounted survival skill - our intuition. The Gift of Fear is a remarkable, unique combination of practical guidance on leading a safer life and profound insight into human behavior.

Do loving relationships end because couples lack communication skills, struggle to empathize, and fail to accommodate each other’s needs? That’s a common belief within and outside of the therapeutic world… but what if it’s all wrong? In You Are the One You’ve Been Waiting For, Dr. Richard Schwartz, the celebrated founder of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, offers a new way—a path toward courageous love that replaces the striving, dependent, and disconnected approach to solving relationship challenges.

An intense conversation, a spat with a partner, or even an obnoxious tweet - these situations aren't life-or-death, yet we often react as if they are. That's because our bodies treat most perceived threats the same way. Yet one approach has proven to be incredibly effective in training our nervous system to stop overreacting: polyvagal theory. In Anchored, expert teacher Deb Dana shares a down-to-earth presentation of polyvagal theory, then brings the science to life with practical, everyday ways to transform your relationship with your body.

Richard H. Thaler has spent his career studying the radical notion that the central agents in the economy are humans - predictable, error-prone individuals.

Excellent book on safety with real life examples!
This book is a valuable resource for encouraging people (women especially, in my opinion) to trust their intuition or “gut instinct”. I appreciated the real world situations and the stories from Gavin’s personal security business.

Powerful, informative & simple to apply.
I spent 15 years as a Police Officer in the Royal Canadian Mounted Pollice, 8 of which I was directly involved in protection of high profile public figures.
The information about intimate partner violence and stalkers was the most impressive part of the book. Mr. De Becker is right. In Law Enforcment we rely heavily on court orders as a deterrent, but a piece of paper rarely prevents an offender from violently re-offending.
This book should be required reading in every Police Academy. Domestic Violence was by far the most common form of violence I encountered as a Police Officer. I think of the victims I could've helped more thoroughly with a safety plan, rather than going through the check the box mindset of seek court order & move on to the next problem.
Bonus: Mr. De Becker is a great narrator, enjoyable to listen to.

Everyone should have this knowledge
This is an amazing book. I don’t even know how else to say it. It should be read by everyone. I have bought the softcover to give to my daughter, it it makes me feel like I have helped her to avoid any dangerous situation, before she even get into it. It’s like a manual on how to keep yourself safe.
I can’t recommend this book enough.
Thank you Mr. de Becker
