مسئوليه لما ابقى اول ريفيو باللغه العربيه للكتاب...لكنى فعلا استفدت و سعدت بقراءه هذا الكتاب

الكتاب بالانجليزى ولا اظن بوجود نسخه مترجمه للاسف منه بالعربيه...لكن ابشرك بكون اللغه الانجليزيه المستخدمه بسيطه الى حدا ما و غير محتويه لكلمات معقده كما انه مرصع بالصور عند الحاجه

يحوى الكتاب ارشادات التصرف فى المواقف القصوى التى تتعرض فيها للخطر او توضع فى مواقف خطره او شائعه ...الاهم انه بيحوى ازاى تجنب نفسك اصلا تلك المواقف فى نهايه كل فصل

الكتاب بيحتوى مواقف متعدده معظمها مفيد و بعضها مفيد جدا و بعضها

This was a very entertaining read, but I wasted far too much time prolonging my time to read it.
I could have read this in a day and I will attempt to do so with the college version which I will begin when I arrive home.

There are some scenarios in this book that are ridiculous, but possible: such as avoiding a stampede of elephants.

The everyday scenarios, like saving yourself from choking or a wild taxi ride, are more believeable to happen.
Now right on the first page this book sets out a disclai...more

I really, really liked the first one, but this one seems that most of the situations were a bit far-fetched. Though at the same time, that is what the book is supposed to be about, so I guess I can't chide it too much. I don't think that it was as well organized as the first one and some of the scenarios are a bit difficult to understand. But for those who are looking to be prepared for as much as they can be, it will help you put another tool in your tool box.

Friend took this book away, said he needs to know how to get out of the coffin and how to take a bullet, just because he knows me - have no idea what he means 0_O. I'm a fluffy bunny -

I can't really say if this book has made me more aware and prepared for anything, or if it just made me plain old paranoid. Either way, it's a fun read, and fairly helpful too.

Great advice. Hope I never need any of it.

Distrayant et vite lu, mais d'un niveau assez inégal (chapitre sur les vampires pas très original, au contraire de ceux d'un intérêt plus pratique : survivre à un empoisonnement, une chute dans une bouche d'égout, échapper à un gorille, etc). On ne peut pas dire que les auteurs se sont beaucoup foulés, mais ça remplit très bien son rôle de passe-temps dans les transports.
