Title: Sound Advice for Security Overseas
Review: For sheltered North Americans, the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks drove home the reality of globalization: it's a dangerous world out there, and affluent Westerners are targets. In this straightforward guide, former CIA operative and instructor William "Mac" Epps uses eye-opening details to reveal the hazards you may face when traveling abroad. He offers dozens of useful tips, bolstered by examples from real-world hijackings, bombings and kidnappings. Epps' incessant paranoia can seem a bit much - he advises readers to be suspicious of everyone they meet. What's the fun of traveling abroad if you're terrified of everyone and everything? Yet his bottom-line advice isn't that you should cower in your hotel room, simply that you should be constantly vigilant about your safety - and you should know how to get out of a jam if you get into one. We recommend this guide to international travelers.
