Emergency: This Book Will Save Your Life - Neil Strauss

First published on 19 Jun 2009. Updated on 20 Jun 2009.

Neil StraussThe world of Neil Strauss is a fascinating one. From a job as contributing editor at Rolling Stone to master of the art of picking up women and author of The Game to book club host, this man has surely seen and done it all.
 
His latest book, Emergency: This Book Will Save Your Life, will, in all likelihood, do just that. In our pre-apocalyptic world, Strauss argues, it can't hurt to know how to walk and talk like a man, or how to evade a pursuant vehicle. Part survivalist handbook and part non-fiction novel, Emergency might not equip you with skills so much as scare you into knowing you need to learn some.
 
Catch the author talking life experience, lock picking and lovely, lovely ladies when he hosts an audience Q&A and book signing at Verge Bar - ArtHouse Hotel on Wednesday 24 June at 6pm.
 
Tickets are $15 and can be purchased over the counter from Kinokuniya (Level 2, The Galleries Victoria, 500 George St, Sydney 2000).
