商品簡介
Kathleen Baty's transformation from ordinary citizen to Safety Chick began with her experience as the victim of an aggressive stalker. She is now a safety consultant who has appeared on national TV. In this portable (6x8"), reader-friendly guide, she offers a complete safety handbook for female students starting college, showing how to fend off a range of modern dangers, from aggressive car window washers to rapists and identity thieves. After a chapter devoted to the importance of trusting your intuition, the book covers dorm safety and living off campus, drug-facilitated sexual assault, and date rape drugs. A chapter on web safety covers social media, cyberbullying, and Internet dating. Also covered are travel and hotel safety, sexual harassment, and stalking. The self-defense chapter explores options such as pepper sprays and the Civilian TASER C2. The book includes a detailed sample roommate agreement for those sharing a rental dwelling, a sample stalking incident log, and an annotated list of websites.
