OverviewWritten by the Co-Chairman of the Urban Survival and Preparedness Institute (USPI), the USPI URBAN SELF DEFENSE MANUAL is the complete guide to survival in an urban environment. Wherein Woodland Survival - also known as Rural Survival - is concerned with SHTF ( S**t Hits The Fan ) events, Urban Survival is concerned with day-to-day survival. We need Urban Survival and Preparedness EVERY day. We only need Woodland Survival when all things have fallen apart AND we are able to make it to the forest and live off the land like Robinson Crusoe. The modern, URBAN environment is rife with dangers. Crime, violence, natural disasters, wars and police terrorism are real life possibilities for which few people are prepared. The home is no longer a place of sanctuary and armored, heavily armed, militarized police have been conditioned to see people of Afrikan descent NOT as citizens to protect and to serve, but as the enemy. The USPI URBAN SELF DEFENSE MANUAL offers readers simple, safe, and practical advice on how to prepare for, and react to, dozens of life threatening situations. Whether you are caught in the city during a major earthquake or experiencing police terrorism in your neighborhood, it is always important to be prepared, not just with equipment, but with the knowledge how to survive any dire situation. The USPI URBAN SELF DEFENSE MANUAL equips us with that knowledge.
