Antiterrorism and Threat Response Planning and Implementation Ross Johnson Capital Power Corporation, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

“This book is full of sense … sound, useful, and wideranging."

—Professional Security Magazine

Antiterrorism and Threat Response uses an adaptation of the U.S. Department of Defense’s antiterrorism fundamentals and applies it to the private sector to protect companies, facilities, and infrastructures.

Future security managers will learn how to understand the terrorist attack planning cycle, conduct a terrorism threat vulnerability assessment, and develop an observation plan and verification plan.

The text explains how surveillance detection works and how pattern analysis wheels can be used to find weaknesses in security operations. It describes how to establish response plans for a wide variety of contingencies related to terrorist attack, and how to adapt this methodology to maritime operations against piracy, individual protection, and travel security in highrisk environments. It also explores working with other security departments, the police, and the public to create infrastructure protection zones that will enhance the detection of suspicious events and reduce the likelihood of terrorist attack.

Breaking Al-Qaeda Psychological and Operational Techniques, Second Edition Elena Mastors American Military University, USA

Despite the killing of Osama bin Laden, the Al-Qaeda network he inspired is still alive and well and in some places, thriving. The rise and persistence of the radical threat must be viewed through a fusion of psychology, sociology, and organization development and human behavior theory. Breaking Al-Qaeda Psychological and Operational Techniques, Second Edition serves to educate those on the front line, as well as strategic planners and thinkers on the subject.

Focusing on the background and history of Al-Qaeda, developments in recent years, and how and where AlQaeda is spreading, it examines the current state of the terrorist network and what the organization and individual cells are doing to recruit, plan, and carry out attacks against the West. The book also investigates intelligence and counterterror methods to garner information on Al-Qaeda and steps that are being taken to counter the continuing threat.

The author explores recent developments related to the Arab spring and addresses how the Al-Qaeda network continues to expand especially in Egypt, Yemen, Somalia, Mali, and Syria. Illustrating the shifting message and ideology of Al-Qaeda since the death of Osama bin Laden, the text describes how regional and international governments can utilize intelligence and apply counterterror measures to break relationships between groups.

Rick Bissell

Deborah S.K. Thomas, Brenda D. Phillips, William E. Lovekamp, and Alice Fothergill

University of Maryland, Baltimore, USA

If governments, public administrators, and emergency management professionals are to succeed in protecting our populations, there must be consensus, decisiveness, and leadership in both the coordination and response. Based on a popular course for the FEMA Higher Education project, Preparedness and Response for Catastrophic Disasters provides important insight into plans to mitigate and respond to the devastation caused by large-scale catastrophic events.

Written by top disaster scholars and practitioners, the book defines what constitutes a catastrophic event, outlining both the factors that can lead to catastrophes and the unique logistical, planning, and response challenges posed by them. It explores how catastrophes can dramatically affect populations and addresses new, innovative, and fundamentally unique strategies communities can institute to better prepare populations for catastrophic events and their aftermath.

Edited by

University of Denver, Colorado, USA

Julie Framingham

Enhanced with new cases and real-world examples, The Human Side of Disaster, Second Edition presents an updated summary of the social science knowledge base of human responses to disaster. Dr. Drabek draws upon his 40-plus years of conducting research on individual, group, and organizational responses to disaster to illustrate and integrate key insights from the social sciences—teaching students how to anticipate human behaviors in crisis.

The book begins with a series of original short stories rooted within actual disaster events. These stories are woven into the entire text to demonstrate essential findings from the research literature. The core of the book is a summary of key findings regarding disaster warning responses, evacuation behavior, initial postimpact survival behavior, traditional and emergent roles of volunteers, and short-term and longer-term disaster impacts.

Florida Department of Children and Families, Tallahassee, USA

Martell L. Teasley Florida State University, Tallahassee, USA

In the past two decades, disaster behavioral health research, policy, and practice have grown exponentially. Today’s increasing frequency and intensity of disasters merit greater focus on the development of modalities for intervention and mitigation against the psychological impacts of disaster. In Behavioral Health Response to Disasters, professionals with years of practice, research, and national advisory board service review and discuss key topics in the field.

Highlighting the themes of cultural competence and evidence-based practice, the text presents students with an interdisciplinary approach to examining specific disaster behavioral health topics. It considers how an individual’s culture may impact willingness to seek out and accept services and incorporates research on vulnerable or at-risk populations who are likely to suffer disproportionately more adverse psychological consequences of disaster. The book discusses clinical studies of cognitive behavioral treatments for disasterrelated distress and post-traumatic stress disorder. It covers the wide variety of issues in this emerging field, highlighting concerns that we must address in order to create more disaster-resilient communities.

Emergency Response Leadership in the Open A New Paradigm in Emergency Management Adam Crowe Richmond, Virginia, USA

Now that Web 2.0 technologies and social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter have become inherently ingrained in all facets of our lives, emergency managers must re-evaluate standardized approaches. Providing a roadmap for twenty-first century emergency management best practices, Leadership in the Open: A New Paradigm in Emergency Management examines public expectations relative to the use of communication and Web 2.0 technologies for emergency management activities. It covers current technologies along with the public’s demand for transparency and the everincreasing need for instant information and updates.

The book is divided into three sections that focus on the fundamentals of social media, the potential effects of its strategic use in disaster management, and the attitude of engagement that is effective for community commitment. Coverage includes efficiency, magnification, humility, creativity, ethics, the tension of changing public expectations, and long-standing best practices within the emergency management community.

Building on the author’s bestselling Disasters 2.0: The Application of Social Media Systems for Modern Emergency Management, the book looks at an emergency manager's role not simply by job function, but on what the public demands. Filled with extensive real-world examples, this is an ideal textbook for future leaders in emergency management, firstresponse, and business continuity.

Introduction to Surveillance Studies J.K. Petersen Computer Consultant, Writer, Educator, Bellingham, Washington, USA

Used by private industry, law enforcement, and for national security, surveillance can be a potent tool for protecting resources and assets. It can also be extremely invasive, calling into question our basic rights to freedom and privacy. Introduction to Surveillance Studies explores technological trends, past- and present-day rationales for surveillance and surveillance devices, and current social issues surrounding them.

The book begins with a brief historical perspective on the evolution of surveillance technologies and then charts the development of modern-day devices from the invention of radar to the dawn of the Internet.

Next, it describes emerging technologies—including GIS, GPS devices, Google Maps, biometric technology, surveillance cameras, global satellites, miniaturization of devices, and social media—that are challenging notions of privacy and the right of access to information. While focusing on the technology, the book also discusses surveillance as a phenomenon and what these technologies mean to our understanding of freedom, privacy, and the impact of technology on communications and the structure of society.

Enhanced with numerous photos, the book helps students understand the pros and cons—and some of the controversy—of these increasingly sophisticated technologies, their collective impact, and what the future may hold.

Second Edition

Mineta Transportation Institute, San Jose State University, California, USA

“ … the best textbook I have read on transportation security … highly recommended for all introductory homeland security and transportation security courses, and would be an excellent additional text for many emergency management and security management courses."

—Linda Kiltz, Journal of Homeland Security Education

Introduction to Transportation Security examines basic theories of security and emergency management and the integrated nature of the nation’s critical infrastructure. Describing threats to transportation in each surface mode, it discusses the federal agencies working in emergency management and transportation security along with their intelligence and response requirements and capabilities.

Profiling the disasters that have occurred in the U.S. and elsewhere and their significant economic impacts, it explains cost-beneficial security strategies aimed at preventing catastrophic failures in each transportation mode. It also describes effective methods for organizing, testing, and evaluating transportation security across modes and professions.

The book includes learning objectives and discussion questions to test assimilation of the material and case studies to facilitate a practical understanding of the concepts.

Port Security Management Kenneth Christopher Park University, Parkville, Missouri, USA

Sea and freshwater ports are a key component of U.S. critical infrastructure and are vital to maintaining the global and domestic economy. The September 11th attacks in the U.S. marked a paradigm shift in the security of transportation systems including the port and shipping industries. This has led to an increased emphasis on port security.

Fully updated, the second edition of Port Security Management covers the latest on continuously changing legislation regarding federal mandates, credentializing employees, securing vessels, and cargo security.

The book focuses on best practices, providing realworld solutions to future law enforcement and security management professionals. It discusses legislative measures, regulatory issues, and logistical aspects of port security. It also addresses port security in the context of global transportation systems. Coverage includes cruise ships, cargo security, CT-PAT, and emergency operations as well as risk assessment and physical security best practices for securing ships and ports. This edition includes a new chapter on intelligence.
