  • Street Smarts Summery.

    It’s basically street smarts for people whove never been in a dangerous urban environment. Very good coverage on the psychology of attackers, however I can not write a good review, because I’ve spent 20+ years on the street. Worth a look.

  • Do not buy

    Lots of stuff like if you drink acid contact medical assistance immediately. This book has not one piece of urban survival information in it. Talks about renting tools from an authorized dealer with good reputation...total garbage.
