In this age of uncertainty we are all looking for answers. Every day we cope with another report. Anthrax in New York, Florida and Washington, D.C. Arrests nationwide. Threats from Afghanistan. While we may not be able to stop terrorism, we can stop terror. Fear Less shows readers how to manage their own fear and enhance their own safety. It anwers the questions we are currently asking. Where can I be safe? What is the risk of further attacks? How can I protect my family? Is it okay to be afraid? What should I avoid? At this moment, its hard to imagine a more important, more comforting, and more necessary book. The world may not be all right, but you can be, with Fear Less.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Customer Rating:
Summary: Enh
Comment: It's padded and dated, with lots of material recycled from The Gift of Fear and not a lot of actionable information (so if my neighbors don't have furniture, I guess I should report them to the police as potential terrorists? OK, I'll get right on that). This book would be probably helpful for somebody with a pathological fear of terrorism but it's really not interesting to a general audience. There is also a conspicuous lack of coverage on racial profiling and racism against/fear of Arabs and Muslims.

Customer Rating:
Summary: A Terrific Book
Comment: This book calms down silly fears and brings rational thought and analysis to what is truly to be feared and what is not. Very good reading.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Fear Less by Gavin DeBeckker
Comment: This book was purchased and sent to Iraq to my grandson
who is in the Military Police in Baghdad. He should be
home on a two-week leave next month.

So, I can't review the book. He has the second book by
Gavin DeBeckker, which I purchased from your company and
has indicated he thought it was very good and helpful.

Summary: Great Quick Read
Comment: Quick easy read. I wish I had read this right after 9/11 as it has taken me some time to come to the same conclusions this book offers. Even though that is when this book was written to be read, it didn't hurt to get some reasurance I am now on the right track. I like de Becker's style. He seems like a real classy guy.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent Ideas
Comment: Another hit from Gavin De Becker. Once again his common sense, see-it-for-what-it-is approach is on the mark. After reading this book you will not look at the news media the same, if you care to look at it much at all! The scare tactics thrown in our faces every day take on an almost comical appearance when you see them for what they are. Do yourself a favor and do as the title suggests, read this book and fear less.
