Guiora Publishes New Book on Effectiveness of Homeland Security Measures

As the U.S. approaches the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks, a new book by Amos Guiora, Professor of Law at the University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law, asks critical questions about whether policies enacted to protect us have actually made the nation safer, or whether they have instead provided the public with a false sense of security.

In Homeland Security: What Is It and Where Are We Going? Guiora, a retired Lieutenant Colonel in the Israel Defense Forces, explores issues of law, policy, and lessons learned. The book is described as “suitable for policy makers, academics, and the general public alike.”  It “presents examples from the United States and Israel, offering concrete recommendations for the articulation, development, and implementation of effective homeland security strategy.”

Homeland Security: What Is It and Where Are We Going? is available online from its publisher, CRC Press.
