If you want learn how to deal with a hostage situation, this is the wrong book. If you are new to the industry or a manager in charge of training new officers this book will do a good job of covering the basics. I recomend this book to all new officers I encounter. There are other books that deal with different subjects of security indepth, but this is the one that opens the door of knowledge and paves the way for further studying.

The basics are well covered!

I would immediately recommend this book to anyone interested in or has to train new security persons. Although it may not cover hostage situations, terrorist attacks, etc., it does well, what any book can do: Cover the basics! No security company that survives can rely on text or videos to fully train their personnel. But Mr. Clede's book does cover those basics with detail. One of my favorite features of the book is the legal research and inclusion of court rulings. These are very important for the officer to understand what rights are granted, why and by whom. I myself use this book to augment training within my security curriculum. Although Mr.Clede may be a freelance writer, he has many competent contributors listed within the cover. To Mr. Clede, you have done well where others of lagged.
