London Bombings Bring Back Fears

James R. White, Jr., and Anthony S. Petti are public safety and security consultants who have combined 35 years of experience and research and written a new book, titled America, Wake Up!, which is designed to educate the average American on how they can help prevent terror.

(PRWEB) July 16, 2005 -- The bombings in London on July 7 have brought back the memories of fear felt on September 11, 2001. Over 50 victims were killed, and over 700 injured in the calculated acts of terror. Nobody knows for sure when terrorists will strike, and millions of dollars are being poured into homeland security to try and prevent these events from happening. It is an overwhelming task, due to the endless avenues terrorists can take to spread destruction. James R. White, Jr., and Anthony S. Petti are public safety and security consultants who have combined 35 years of experience and research and written a new book, titled America, Wake Up!, which is designed to educate the average American on how they can help prevent terror.

Both Mr. White and Mr. Petti have worked in security positions in hospitals, shopping malls, schools, and large complexes during their careers, and have determined that many people have the wrong concept about what can prevent a terror attack. In their book they describe how many people think that public police officers can prevent a crime or act of terror, when police are actually often not on the scene of a crime until after the event has occurred. They explain how the answer lies with placing more emphasis on having a strong security staff in place at all of these public facilities, and having a public that respects the professionalism and authority of these officers.

Terrorism is a topic that affects each and every one of us. America, Wake Up! is a valuable tool that will help you come to understand the challenges that we face in fighting terrorism, and show you the respect that security personnel deserve in our battle. America, Wake Up! is published by American Book Publishing and is available at stores near you, and at a discount online at the Publisher Direct Bookstores website at www.pdbookstore.com.
