ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
"The Gift of Fear" by Gavin de Becker explores the power of intuition as a survival mechanism, teaching readers to trust their instincts in dangerous situations. Drawing on real-life case studies, de Becker highlights how recognizing subtle survival signals—such as body language, facial expressions, and certain behaviors—can prevent harm. The book delves into how violence often follows predictable patterns, offering insights into understanding threats, stalking behavior, and high-risk situations. It emphasizes the importance of listening to one's gut feelings, understanding psychological patterns of violence, and applying these survival strategies to protect oneself in everyday life.
