Brent Sanders: How dangerous men think

Every woman who is attacked by any assailant has a powerful weapon to use in her own defence. Not mace, not a knife or a karate kick, but her knowledge of how this assailant's mind works, and her confidence that she can use that knowledge to increase her chances of escape.

This compelling message comes to us via Sanders, a New Zealand-born, Australia-based ex-police officer who has worked with sex offenders, gangs and many other violent criminals. Ten years ago he set up his own organisation to teach women and girls how to stay safe for life.

Endorsed by Rape Crisis, his book is realistic, uncompromising and essential reading for anyone who doubts their ability to deal with aggressors of any kind.
