When Jason Hanson joined the CIA in 2003, he never imagined that the same tactics he used there for counterintelligence, surveillance, and protecting agency personnel would prove to be essential in every day civilian life. In addition to escaping handcuffs, picking locks, and spotting when someone's lying, he can improvise a self-defense weapon, pack a perfect emergency kit, and disappear off the grid if necessary. Here Hanson reveals how to prevent home invasions, carjackings, muggings, and other violent crimes; run countersurveillance and avoid becoming a soft target; recognize common scams at home and abroad; become a human lie detector in any setting; and gain peace of mind by being prepared for anything instead of uninformed or afraid.

There isn't much in this book to sink your teeth into. If you are clueless about personal security, its not a bad place to start, but essentially it tells you to be alert, but is short on specifics. Compared to the Marine Corps' Combat Hunter book "Left of Bang", which actually tells you how to develop the skills and mindset you need to be aware of danger, this book is mostly just fluff.
