Download or read book The Uspi Urban Self Defense Manual written by Balogun Ojetade and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by the Co-Chairman of the Urban Survival and Preparedness Institute (USPI), the USPI URBAN SELF DEFENSE MANUAL is the complete guide to survival in an urban environment. Wherein Woodland Survival - also known as Rural Survival - is concerned with SHTF ("S**t Hits The Fan") events, Urban Survival is concerned with day-to-day survival. We need Urban Survival and Preparedness EVERY day. We only need Woodland Survival when all things have fallen apart AND we are able to make it to the forest and live off the land like Robinson Crusoe. The modern, URBAN environment is rife with dangers. Crime, violence, natural disasters, wars and police terrorism are real life possibilities for which few people are prepared. The home is no longer a place of sanctuary and armored, heavily armed, militarized police have been conditioned to see people of Afrikan descent NOT as citizens to protect and to serve, but as the enemy. The USPI URBAN SELF DEFENSE MANUAL offers readers simple, safe, and practical advice on how to prepare for, and react to, dozens of life threatening situations. Whether you are caught in the city during a major earthquake or experiencing police terrorism in your neighborhood, it is always important to be prepared, not just with equipment, but with the knowledge how to survive any dire situation. The USPI URBAN SELF DEFENSE MANUAL equips us with that knowledge.

Download or read book Modern Bunkers written by Charles Nehme and published by Charles Nehme. This book was released on with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flickering oil lamp casting long shadows on the damp concrete walls. Canned food stacked high, the air thick with the metallic tang of fear and survival. This is the image of the bunker that often haunts our imagination, a relic of a Cold War past. But the modern bunker has shed its dusty skin, emerging as a symbol of something far more complex and intriguing. This book delves into the fascinating world of these subterranean sanctuaries, shattering the stereotypes and revealing a spectrum of designs and motivations. We journey beyond the prepper stereotype, exploring the diverse individuals and communities seeking refuge in these high-tech havens. From luxury survival condos to self-sufficient Earthships, we dissect the engineering marvels and intricate planning behind their construction. But this book is not just about concrete and steel. It is about the human story unfolding within these self-contained worlds. We delve into the psychological impact of underground living, exploring strategies for building community, fostering mental well-being, and thriving in confined spaces. We examine the ethical considerations of resource allocation and the potential impact on broader society. Finally, we peer into the future, envisioning advancements that will shape the next generation of bunkers. We ponder the possibility of these shelters evolving into permanent residences, and delve into the societal implications of such a shift. This book is an invitation to explore the modern bunker not just as a physical structure, but as a window into our evolving relationship with fear, preparedness, and ultimately, ourselves. It is a story of resilience, resourcefulness, and the human spirit's enduring quest for security and comfort, even in the face of the unknown. So, join us on this subterranean adventure, and prepare to have your perception of the modern bunker irrevocably transformed.

Download or read book The Myth of the Born Criminal written by Jarkko Jalava and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By some estimates, there are as many as twelve million psychopaths in the United States alone. Cold-blooded, remorseless, and strangely charismatic, they commit at least half of all serious and violent crimes. Supposedly, most serial killers are psychopaths, as, surprisngly, are large numbers of corporate executives. They seem to be an inescapable, and fascinating, threat in our midst. But is psychopathy a brain disorder, as many scientists now claim? Or is it just a reflection of modern society’s deepest fears? The Myth of the Born Criminal offers the first comprehensive critique of the concept of psychopathy from the eighteenth-century origins of the born-criminal theory to the latest neuroimaging, behavioural genetics, and statistical studies. Jarkko Jalava, Stephanie Griffiths, and Michael Maraun use their expertise in neuropsychology, psychometrics, and criminology to dispel the myth that psychopathy is a biologically-based condition. Deconstructing the emotive language with which both research scientists and reporters describe the psychopaths among us, they explain how the idea of psychopathy offers a comforting neurobiological solution to the mystery of evil. A stunning merger of rigorous science and clear-sighted cultural analysis, The Myth of the Born Criminal is for anyone who wonders just what truth – or fiction – lurks behind the study of psychopathy.

Every day serves as a constant reminder: The world is truly a frightening place. The SAS Urban Survival Guide advises readers to think practically about urban environments and offers tips and instructions on how to avoid hazards wherever one goes.
