From Baird Maritime:
In these times of heightened security awareness inspired by America's paranoid response to terrorism, it is easy to forget that there are other reasons for shipowners and crews to be security conscious.
The author of this very well balanced analysis of security problems and their solutions, for example, has had the unpleasant personal experience of being attacked by pirates. There is obviously nothing like such an experience to heighten one's awareness of ship security.
His subsequent professional experience as a fraud investigator and security specialist has certainly refined his knowledge of the subject. This wide ranging book reflects and, usefully, reproduces that knowledge in a very easily read and digested form.
Another excellent and timely publication from the prolific and very sound Nautical Institute.
