The Art of Executive Protection [first edition]

The Art of Executive Protection is about a highly specialized form of defensive warfare - modern executive protection. Its foundation rests on the doctrines of Sun Tzu, the ancient Chinese military strategist whose philosophy still rings true. His central maxim is that one must plan secretly, move surreptitiously, and foil the enemy's intentions, so that the day may be won without shedding a drop of blood. That is the essence of executive protection - the avoidance of conflict through intelligent, proactive thinking. Add to that the demeanor of a quiet, dignified, and capable professional, and you have a description of a modern executive protection practitioner.
