Suggest me some books about self defense and protection (e.g., what to do if you’re being followed)
As the title suggests, I’m interested in learning about ways of protecting myself, such as learning what to do if someone is following me, asks for my money, threatens me with knife, and so on. Thank you.
Check out *The Gift of Fear.* I have not read it, full disclosure, but my wife recommends it.
As an aside, if a mugger demands a material object you should give it to them. It’s not worth your health or safety. This from a 10 year vet of the military police FWIW.

Agree with The Gift of Fear. It’s still valid like 30 years later. Walk with a purpose and have awareness of your situation and surroundings at all times.
