The Girl's Guide to Predators by Alison Summers Pdf

Have you ever dated a predator, a narcissist or a liar? If these characteristics sound at all familiar, chances are that you have: -He is adamant everyone get onside, helping him get where he wants to go, yet he seldom feels gratitude or expresses appreciation -He blames all his mistakes or failures on other people, hangs on to resentments and is highly critical of others -He exhibits no empathy, is deceitful and manipulative, and displays only shallow emotions Psychologists estimate that all women will be put in harm's way, in one form or another, by a predator during their lifetime. At their most extreme, the predator is a sociopath who lures woman into psychologically-damaging relationships that are almost impossible to walk away from safely. More common is the garden-variety narcissist or the man with anti-social personality disorder. Then there are the stalkers... After her own terrifying experience, Alison Summers has created The Girl's Guide to Predators. It is everything you need to know about the predatory man. With countless case studies and real-life examples, and based on years of research, this is the guidebook that no girl can afford not to read.

A Girl's Guide to Predators by Alison Summers Pdf

Most women wouldn't expect a man to be cynically assessing their "usefulness" on a first date but that's how a psychopath thinks. Psychopaths are ruthless human predators. The man across the restaurant table is calculating, "Does she have what I need?" What is he after? It could be anything. A sexual partner, money he hopes to live off, access to a particular group of friends or colleagues, a willingness to help him climb the career ladder...or it could be something more basic: to provide a cover of respectability that will blind others to his predatory nature. A psychopath seduces his target by love-bombing her. Once he has figured out the kind of man who will appeal to her, this shape-shifter turns himself into the man of her dreams. He will pursue her ardently and obsessively. And once he has won the woman's heart, he will manipulate the relationship so that he extracts as much as he can while giving as little as possible. When the psychopath has exhausted what psychologists call "narcissistic supply," his true nature will be revealed. He will become cold, cruel and abusive to his partner. He will clean out the bank accounts and abandon her. In his lifetime a psychopath leaves behind a trail of emotional and financial wreckage. But, as the world-famous security expert Gavin de Becker observes, while "we cannot change or eliminate all the dangerous people in the world, we can change our ability to deal with them." In A Girls Guide to Predators: The Games Psychopaths and Narcissists Play, readers get advice from criminal experts and leading psychologists on how to recognize a typical psychopath before he gets the chance to play his mind games. Dr. George K. Simon, author of the international bestseller In Sheep's Clothing: Understanding and Dealing with Manipulative People writes: "Clearly, concisely written, and packed with useful information, Alison Summers lays out in very understandable terms exactly what the unsuspecting soul needs to know about the predators and other unsavory sorts among us."

Predators by Gregory M. Cooper,Michael R. King Pdf

Most of us only half-listen to the public service announcements about safety in the home. We lock our doors at night, but do little else to change habits that may make us the next victims of the dangerous individuals who are always on the watch for their next opportunity. This updated paperback edition takes readers through the mindset of predatory criminals - their motives, various plans of attack, and way of thinking - and then teaches simple lifestyle techniques that will help reduce the risk of becoming victimized. Featuring a new chapter on how the Internet and social media has radically changed how some predators operate, criminal behavior specialists Greg Cooper and Mike King provide expert analysis based on real-life cases, in addition to moving insights from victims and criminals themselves. The authors make the point that the people who commit these crimes aren't much different from the predators of the wild, preying on the weak and unsuspecting. What makes these individuals more dangerous than their instinctive wildlife counterparts, however, is that they consciously choose to inflict their will on the more vulnerable members of their own species. To protect our loved ones and ourselves requires that we truly educate ourselves about the predators who live in our society and then take appropriate action. This excellent, in-depth study will help readers lead safer lives.

A Girl's Guide to the Criminal Mind by Alison Summers Pdf

The USA has 76 percent of the world's serial killers. During the 1980s, FBI special agents traveled around the country to conduct death row interviews with 198 of them. The FBI agents from Quantico gained valuable insights into a predator's mindset. This information formed the basis of a new field of study called behavioral profiling. This face-to-face research continues today. Thousands of serial rapists and sexual murderers have disclosed tricks of the trade to criminal profilers and forensic psychiatrists. But what the professionals discovered about their modus operandi has never been made available to those who need it most-their prey-and Alison Summers wants to change that. She spent seven years collecting material from FBI behavioral profilers, and forensic psychologists and psychiatrists, and then she condensed a treasure trove of lifesaving information into this easy-to-read guide for women and girls. Experts believe a predator's best weapon is surprise. In this book, Summers takes that weapon away. Using real-life cases, prison interviews, and testimonies by rape survivors, Summers analyzes elements that are needed for the criminal's plan to succeed, and how we might outwit him. She shows us how to view people and hunting grounds through predatory eyes, and lists simple precautions that have saved lives. The author reveals the most popular ruses and verbal persuasions predators to use to win a victim's trust. A Girl's Guide to a Criminal Mind is an original and powerful survival guide for women and girls who want to take back the night.
