Pinkowski (H. Wayne Huizenga School of Business and Entrepreneurship, Nova Southeastern U.) presents 22 chapters examining interrelated issues of preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation in dealing with the threat of terrorism, principally focusing on homeland security in the United States. Chapters provide an overview of theoretical and definitional matters of homeland security as a discipline; profile different types of terrorist threats; and discuss such issues as profiling, coordination of healthcare response to terrorist incidents, and knowledge management for safe events. They also include case studies of homeland security preparedness and planning in city governments, Norway's homeland security policies, the effects of the September 11th attacks on cross-border traffic, victim management in the case of the collapse of the World Trade Center towers, homeland security administration and finance in Texas county governments, and the economic impact of border closures along the southern border.
