"The encyclopedia of Security Management is a valuable guide for all security professionals. This Second Edition emphasizes topics not covered in the First Edition, particularly those relating to homeland security, terrorism, threats to national infrastructures such as transportation, energy and agriculture, risk assessment, disaster mitigations, and remediation, and weapons of mass destruction (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives). Fay also maintains a strong focus on security measures required at special sites such as electric power, nuclear, gas, and chemical plants; petroleum production and refining facilities; oil and gas pipelines; water treatment and distribution systems; bulk storage facilities; entertainment venues; apartment complexes and hotels; schools; hospitals; government buildings; and financial centers. The articles included in this revision also address protection of air, marine, rail, trucking, and metropolitan transit systems."--BOOK JACKET.
