This book is an excellent guide for the security professional. It encompasses superb instructions in many ways to protect yourself and others. Although not a security professional full-time I found the book a useful addition to my control and restraint repertoire. The only criticism I can find with this book is that it appears to be written for the experienced security professional so all beginners should ideally have a firm background in military or martial art self defence techniques to really appreciate it.

Dr.Holder analyzes the nature of defensive tactics from A-Z.
This straight-forward book breaks down the need for thinking defensively and the psychology of defense. In addition, the author demonstates practical common-sense methodology towards developing a defense-oriented thought process. In finding yourself in a potentially dangerous situation, the first question the calm mind asks is "How did I get in this situation?"
The author asks the questions that should be asked before the situation occurs and shares obviously considerable experience in being prepared for those defensive situations we hope we never have to encounter.
