Written by a former FBI instructor, this book focuses on the mechanics of dealing with various types of hostage takers, suicidal individuals, and barricaded gunmen. The second edition includes new topics such as first responder responsibilities and additional material on two common psychological defense mechanisms, rationalization and projection, as they apply to subjects in a crisis orhostage siege. It is important for negotiators to recognize and understand these mechanisms in order to more effectively deal with and defuse them during anegotiated crisis. The text also features new illustrations.
