Self-Defense Secrets of the Spies

What can real operative tradecraft teach you about staying safe when something feels off? Self-Defense Secrets of the Spies brings together three doctrine-driven guides drawn from the worlds of the CIAs Moscow Rules, Soviet KGB self-defense thinking, and OSS wartime training. Inside, youll find practical lessons in situational awareness, trusting your instincts, verbal de-escalation, blending in, contingency planning, weapons of opportunity, escape-minded thinking, and last-resort self-defense. This is not a sport-fighting manual or a fantasy of espionage. It is a practical guide to recognizing danger earlier, staying composed under pressure, and protecting yourself with the same operational mindset taught to intelligence operatives in hostile environments. � � �
