Gavin de Becker is the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior. His clients include celebrities, corporations, and political organizations, and he serves as an advisor to the CIA and the U.S. Supreme Court. The Gift of Fear has been translated into 14 languages worldwide. According to Gavin de Becker, the experience of fear can be an urgent intuitive message. Its directions to us-to avoid that stranger, to leave the room, to call for help-can, if heeded, save our lives. Drawing on case histories, academic studies, and personal experience, de Becker shows us how the combination of intuitive knowledge and rational principles can enable us to predict and thereby avoid personal violence. By demystifying the apparently random and unpredictable nature of violence, he shows us that "interpersonal violence is not a condition, but a process which can be detected and derailed." Tom Stechschulte's smooth narration reinforces this course in survival that everyone should take.
