About this ebook

In this special edition of The Gift of Fear, featuring a new foreword by the author, Gavin de Becker delves into the psychology of human violence and reveals how we can predict and avoid potential harm. Imagine a stranger offering to help carry your groceries in a deserted parking lot—should you trust him, or is he hiding a darker intention? Or a fired employee telling you, "You'll be sorry"—could he return with a gun? These situations and many others are explored in this groundbreaking book, where de Becker demonstrates that violence is rarely random and usually comes with warning signs.

The Gift of Fear empowers readers by teaching them how to recognize and trust their intuition in situations where danger may be lurking. Through real-world examples from his extensive career, de Becker, the nation's foremost expert on predicting violent behavior, shows how human violence almost always has a clear motive and recognizable indicators.

This book offers more than just practical advice on staying safe; it provides profound insights into human behavior and survival instincts. By trusting your intuition and understanding the signs of potential violence, you can take steps to protect yourself and those around you. The Gift of Fear is not just a guide to avoiding danger—it’s a powerful tool for living a safer, more aware life.
