✦ Synopsis

"Private Security and the Law, 4th Edition, is a unique resource that provides¿analysis of practices in the security industry as they relate to law, regulation,¿licensure, and constitutional questions of case and statutory authority. This book¿describes the legal requirements faced in the area of private security. It¿emphasizes the liability problems common to security operations, including¿ negligence and tortious liability, civil actions frequently litigated, and strategies to¿avoid legal actions that affect business efficiency. The text also examines the¿constitutional and due-process dimensions of private security both domestically¿and internationally, including recent cases and trends that will set pace for future private security laws and regulations. As private security becomes more closely involved in national and international security, cases like Blackwater are examined. The author takes you step by step through the analysis of case law as it applies to situations commonly faced in the private security practice, providing a solid introduction to the legal and ethical standards that shape the industry."--ASIS
