  The Guardian Angels, America's most celebrated public defenders, are now in Britain. Lisa Sliwa, who runs the Angels with her husband Curtis, has drawn on her experience on New York's meanest streets to provide the first ever self-defence book for women. Illustrated with more than two dozen photographs of Lisa in action, Guardian Angels provides a complete range of self-defence strategies: at home, on the street or in a shopping precinct, a car park or a car. And, by exposing and dissecting the psychology of muggers, hooligans and rapists, this book aims to help women reject the role of helpless victim and outwit any attacker.
