Kathleen Baty is the Safety Chick, and her mission in life is to teach women how to keep themselves safe from violence. She stumbled into her calling in a most unfortunate way, when a former high school classmate knocked at her door carrying semiautomatic weapons and 180 rounds of ammunition, intent on kidnapping. Instead, the creep went to jail and the Safety Chick was born. Through her work with Congressman Ed Royce, she helped institute the nation's first anti-stalking law in 1998. Now, calling upon her years of experience in victim's rights and teaching safety seminars across the country, Baty offers women a comprehensive manual for keeping safe in all situations, delivered with her trademark wit and candor. -Top tips for staying safe, whether dating, shopping, traveling, surfing the Web, or staying home alone -Don't be a victim: spousal abuse, what protection laws can and can't provide -Safety checklists tell you what 'weapons' to carry in your purse, how to 'read' different social situations, how to fight back at an attacker, and more
