Recenzii

'Some books, besides being hailed for their content, deserve honour just for the achievement of being there between two covers. Prof Martin Gill's collection The Handbook of Security is one of those books... If a security manager who seeks some academic or other qualification, or wants to think about his profession, has one book on the shelf, it should be this one.' - Mark Rowe, Professional Security
'This is an excellent textbook for graduate-level security education. It is also a great read for undergraduate instructors...The Handbook of Security stands among the industry's top references. It should be the first of many editions.' - Evelyn Byrd, Security Management
'The Handbook of Security is essential reading for all those engaged with the security world, the in-depth tome collating the very best research available for the practising professional...a reference work par excellence.' - Chris Brogan, Security Management Today

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The substantially revised third edition of The Handbook of Security provides the most comprehensive analysis of scholarly security debates and issues to date. It reflects the developments in security technology, the convergence of the cyber and security worlds, and the fact that security management has become even more business focused. It covers newer topics like terrorism, violence, and cybercrime through various offence types such as commercial robbery and bribery. This handbook comprises mostly brand new chapters and a few thoroughly revised chapters, with discussions of the impact of the pandemic. It includes contributions from some of the world's leading scholars from an even broader geographic scale to critique the way security is provided and managed. It speaks to professionals working in security and students studying security-related courses.

Chapter 5 is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
