"The Campus Guardian: A Safety and Self-Protection Handbook for Women in College and University Settings*"* is not just a book about teaching physical protection techniques; it goes beyond the rudimentary self-defense techniques commonly associated with personal safety guides.

While physical techniques are undoubtedly an essential component, we stress the importance of proactive measures such as:

• · risk assessment


• · assertive communication


• · cultivating an empowerment mindset


• · developing and practicing situational awareness


• · self-protection principles, techniques and mindset

This knowledge will enable college women to take charge of their safety, personal security, and well-being.

Chapter by chapter, we will explore a myriad of topics, from building a strong sense of situational awareness to comprehending the dynamics of personal safety on campuses. We will examine how to identify and neutralize possible dangers, gaining knowledge about the significance of mental readiness and emotional fortitude, in addition to physical self-protection.
