How to deal with a stalker
Author: Michael Wenkart
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 3735737846
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Stalking is an increasingly prevalent and disturbing problem in today’s society, made worse and more frightening by the internet and the increasing amount of legal and illegal surveillance that is happening. Cyberstalking has become such a problem that it has had to be enshrined in law as a distinct crime. It is, therefore, important that potential innocent victims are able to spot the signs that they are being, or about to be, stalked, what to do to prevent and dissuade the stalker and what rights and resort they have against the perpetrators. This compilation covers all this as well as looking at self-defence as a means of protection – and its legal implications and the increasingly relevant issue of surveillance and ‘gang stalking.’ You have the right to protection– and informing yourself is the first step in this process.

At Home in the World
Author: Joyce Maynard
Publisher: Picador
ISBN: 1429977558
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
New York Times bestselling author of Labor Day With a New Preface When it was first published in 1998, At Home in the World set off a furor in the literary world and beyond. Joyce Maynard's memoir broke a silence concerning her relationship—at age eighteen—with J.D. Salinger, the famously reclusive author of The Catcher in the Rye, then age fifty-three, who had read a story she wrote for The New York Times in her freshman year of college and sent her a letter that changed her life. Reviewers called her book "shameless" and "powerful" and its author was simultaneously reviled and cheered. With what some have viewed as shocking honesty, Maynard explores her coming of age in an alcoholic family, her mother's dream to mold her into a writer, her self-imposed exile from the world of her peers when she left Yale to live with Salinger, and her struggle to reclaim her sense of self in the crushing aftermath of his dismissal of her not long after her nineteenth birthday. A quarter of a century later—having become a writer, survived the end of her marriage and the deaths of her parents, and with an eighteen-year-old daughter of her own—Maynard pays a visit to the man who broke her heart. The story she tells—of the girl she was and the woman she became—is at once devastating, inspiring, and triumphant.
