Understanding Terrorism and Managing the Consequences is the only comprehensive book for the emergency community and the first to:

  • Discuss tactical violence and information warfare as a significant emergency responder threat.
  • Address weapons of mass effect — how weapons that may not cause mass destruction can cause massive disruption of society and services.
  • Direct emphasis on consequence response and scene safety.
  • Include simulations that can be assigned as student projects.

An effective on-scene resource, as well as the most comprehensive instructional guide, Understanding Terrorism and Managing the Consequences is appropriate for emergency planners at all levels — local, state, and federal. Providing an in-depth look at consequence response, Maniscalco and Christen detail safety procedures for emergency responders, scene search operations, precautions for secondary devices, and initial scene evaluation of a terrorism/ tactical violence event. Their discussion of the incident management system as applied to terrorism/tactical violence response outlines procedures that will insure a coordinated and effective response plan. An overall analysis of the threat spectrum to emergency responders is a significant contribution offering numerous survival skills. Understanding Terrorism and Managing the Consequences is not only a broad but also a complete overview.
