This book saved my life. I had just finished reading this book when I was abducted at 17. I recalled what was said in this book and was able to convince my abductor to drop me off with only minimal assault. I recommend this book to everyone.

We are all irreplaceable, and fortunately it’s up to our own autonomy to prevent a lot of the dangers in the world.
