This is an interesting and informative book on aviation and airport security. The book describes terrorism and provides a historical perspective to the terrorism menace. It critically examines the post 11 September 2001 legislation in the USA and its effectiveness in combating and preventing terrorist attacks in the aviation industry.

I found the book to be instructive. It systematically covers the issues of interest to those involved in aviation security. It is an important reference book for me as my job involves aviation security matters. It contains a wealth of information including some of the latest technologies and techniques that are critical to thwart terrorist attacks. The various security risks are identified as well as the different methods of managing and mitigating them.

If you are involved in aviation or airport security in one way or the other or you have an interest in becoming involved in the future, this book will provide you the information you need in a readable, enlightening, accessible and comprehensive manner.

I found this book to be very helpful and informative. It was written more like a text book, very factual, rather than the authors opinion. I liked the "headlines" at the beginning of each chapter, as this helped to put things in perspective.
