How to protect yourself from accidents, muggings, burglary and attack
John 'Lofty' Wiseman is the author of THE SAS SURVIVAL HANDBOOK, the bestselling guide to survival in the wild. Now he has compiled the even more necessary manual on survival in the urban jungle.
With the clarity, common sense and directness you would expect from the SAS's former Chief Survival Instructor, Lofty Wiseman shares the skills he has perfected over a 26-year career.
Taking you through the essentials for combatting the problems and stresses of urban life for you and your family, THE SAS URBAN SURVIVAL HANDBOOK shows how to make and keep your home and avoid domestic accident or injury. It shows the dangers of DIY tools, chemicals and poisonous plants in your home and garden, and gives help and strategies for home security and fire prevention.
With further sections on avoiding accident and injury at work and in sports, dealing with travel dangers, self-defence from all kinds of attack from telephone nuisance to rape and mugging, plus first aid and how to save a life, this is the one book no home can afford to be without.

Your right to cancel
If you order online, you have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving your goods, without giving a reason.

Once we've confirmed your cancellation, you have 14 days to send the goods back to us.

Faulty or damaged items
Please inspect your order on arrival and contact us immediately if an item is defective, damaged, or not what you ordered. Separately from the 14-day cancellation right above, you're entitled to a repair, replacement or refund on faulty goods for up to two years from purchase, under standard consumer guarantee rights.
