This review is from: Physical Security 150 Things You Should Know (Paperback)

This book manages to list 150 things you should know in the form of a question. Unfortunately, it doesn't tell you the answer. I was left with the situation of having 150 things I should know but still don't. If I had purchased it myself, I would have sent it back.
