When Violence Is the Answer: Learning How to Do What It Takes When Your Life Is at Stake.<\/em><\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

In a civilized society, violence is rarely the answer. But when it is, it’s the only<\/i>\u00a0answer. The sound of breaking glass downstairs in the middle of the night. The words, “Move and you die.” The hands on your child, or the knife to your throat.<\/p>\n

In this essential book, self-protection expert and former military intelligence officer Tim Larkin changes the way we think about violence in order to save our lives. By deconstructing our assumptions about violence — its morality, its function in modern society, how it actually works — Larkin unlocks the shackles of our own taboos and arms us with what we need to know to prevent, prepare for, and survive the unthinkable event of life-or-death violence.<\/p>\n

Through a series of harrowing true-life stories, Larkin demonstrates that violence is a tool equally effective in the hands of the “bad guy” or the “good guy”; that the person who acts first, fastest and with the full force of their body is the one who survives; and that each and every one of us is capable of being that person when our lives are at stake.<\/p>\n

An indispensable resource,\u00a0When Violence is the Answer<\/i>\u00a0will remain with you long after you’ve finished reading, as the bedrock of your self-protection skills and knowledge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
