One of the very first travel specific risk management contributions

One of the very first travel specific risk management contributions. Loads of "what ifs" and scenario styled content but format and the overload of information will be lost on your average traveler or executive. Risk managers or security professionals will benefit if not for a refresher on the end-to-end demands of mitigating travel threats, then to educate more specifically what types of scenarios will be faced by your average traveling executive. 707 total tips! Great reference material or training development tool but not for everyone. Unless your a travel security professional, your time would be better spent with an afternoon chatting to someone who is and incrementally applying some of the lessons and principles in your everyday travel habits.

From The Tactical Traveler on BizTravel.com, June 8, 1998

Maybe it is the revelation that two historic enemies, Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan, now have state-of-the-art weapons of destruction, but I'm feeling a bit paranoid about travel again. If you're similarly spooked, check out the second edition of "Travel Can Be Murder," a practical, easy-to-follow guide to on-the-road safety. Written by psychologist Terry Riley, the paperback offers more than 600 useful and thought-provoking tips. You've read most of the information before, but consider this a refresher course on paranoia, the traveler's best friend.

Reveiw from Security Management, September, 1998

Kidnappings in India and the Philippines. Violent robberies in St. Petersburg, Russia, and Washington, D.C. Hotel fires in Las Vegas and Havana. How can a business traveler keep safe while on the road? This book tries to answer that question, and for the most part, it does so in fine fashion. International terrorism, plane hijackings, hostage situations, and street crime have made the security executive an important resource for the peripatetic business person. This pocket-size resource provides an easy, convenient way of informing the corporate road warrior of the dangers that exist, how to avoid them, and how to escape them. Its small size also makes the book easy for an executive to pack with belongings so that he or she can have an on-site reference. The simple chapter layout and titling make it easy to pick out topics of immediate interest, such as dealing with hotel fires, using public facilities, or preparing for a trip on short notice. The book is written in such an easy prose style that it makes good reading for a short plane flight--though a lot of information is squeezed into the book's 185 pages. ...this is a valuable little book
