reader_taylor's review against another edition
This book is more memoir than I was thinking it would be. Considering I want to know the best ways to defend myself in a bad situation, this book wasn't extremely beneficial to me.

I’m obsessed with Evy as a person and watch all her interviews and podcasts. I did enjoy this book and there were chapters I loved. It did eventually became a bit of a chore to finish - but that’s just for me personally. Evy is iconic though!

I love this author and her public interviews but this book ended up being different than I expected. It spent much longer on being physically in control of situations than I expected and less time on analyzing human behavior. But I don't regret reading this book, she's so inspiring and definitely taught me some things I didn't know!

I thought this was going to be more of a memoir rather than self help book. The target audience is definitely U.S as it talks about 9/11 and handy tips like how to purchase a bulletproof door and windows. I hope that doesn't come in handy in a wee city in Scotland.
I did find some sections interesting such as rapport building and interview techniques I could use in my professional life.
