I believe that one of the biggest draws will be the authors, their
credentials, and experience in the field. This could be considered
the essential book in this field.

It includes current issues, like the recent OPM data breach and how
cybersecurity has been a shifted focus for homeland security
efforts. This text provides the unique perspectives of those in
academia studying issues in homeland security, as well as the
perspective of a seasoned career practitioner in this field in the
public sector.
*Ryan Schwoebel, University of Alabama, Birmingham*
The author's extensive, firsthand knowledge of the topics comes in
loud and clear and in very basic terms that I know students will
appreciate and understand.
*Robert F. Alonzo, Texas A&M University, San Antonio*
Homeland Security: An Introduction, provides an important overview
of numerous issues homeland security professionals face every day.
The authors deserve great credit for striking the right balance
between operational storytelling and policy, network, and
organizational theories. For serious students who are prepared to
immerse themselves in the field, this textbook will be a go-to
source of information and inspiration.
