Description:

SECURITY: AN INTRODUCTION examines security's evolution from an emphasis on crime prevention to one of preventing losses attributable to not only crime, but also to waste, mistakes, accidents, and unethical behavior. Author Harvey Burstein looks at the loss prevention needs of businesses, institutions, and government, including physical and operational security factors. Based on the author's many years of hands-on, practical experience in the field, the text includes interesting narrative illustrations that provide studnets with a realistic picture of security. Using a balanced and practical approach that will appeal to both students and professors, Burstein discusses security as an academic discipline, focusing on career opportunities and lessons learned from the events of September 11, 2001. This text emphasizes that there is much more to effective security/loss prevention than simply using guards and hardware.
