One of the very first travel specific risk management contributions, April 23 2010
By Tony J. Ridley "Consultant, speaker, author, ... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Travel Can Be Murder: A Business Traveler's Guide to Personal Safety (Paperback)
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.

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.

Just a Mash Up From Other Sources, Jan 28 2010
By S. Diggs "Stringbean" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Travel Can Be Murder: A Business Traveler's Guide to Personal Safety (Paperback)
If you have never been out of Greenbow, Alabama in your entire life, this book is just the thing for you! If you have the least bit of research capability or can spell Google, you can find every idea in this book someplace else for free. It is a collection of utterly obvious ideas and offers nothing novel. Some of the suggestions are flat wrong and otherwise risky. Example: leave your passport in the hotel safe. Bad idea. Quite a few countries require foreigners to keep their passport on their person at all times. If you are going to travel internationally to a new country, do yourself a favor and do the research the old fashioned way.
Leave this book for Mr. Gump.
