When the Shooting Starts: What to do when a Gunman or Terrorist Strikes

Shootings, killings, kidnappings, hostage situations—mass casualty events have become the norm across the globe. When a mass casualty occurs, shock follows pandemonium. Within an arc of just minutes there is confusion, chaos, terror. And then there are the wounded and the dead. But there is a way to survive these unfathomable tragedies. Renowned expert Travis Bruyer, Hollywood’s go-to consultant regarding terrorism, firearms, law enforcement, and police tactics shows readers how they can get out alive. Heralding preparedness as a forerunner of safety, Travis offers a step-by-step guide to surviving an armed intruder, discussing the value of identifying, pinpointing, and managing threatening situations, as well as the importance of trained school and business office policymakers and administrators, quick decision-making, and the ability to take the appropriate life-saving action when confronted—be it run, hide, or fight. Ignorance, a precursor of catastrophe, can leave you in the dark: unsure, frightened, immobilized. However, once you’re armed with the knowledge Travis provides, you’ll be able to see your way to safety. In today’s violent, uncertain world, When the Shooting Starts is the one book everyone should read

Seeking the Right Path: A search for spiritual enlightenment

This book is a chronicle of a personal search for spiritual enlightenment. John Mucai starts by finding out what religion means. He then looks at the different religions in the world today and zeros in on four major ones: Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. The followers of these four religions account for approximately 80% of the world’s population. He looks at their beliefs, practices, and sacred texts. While the book would be of immense interest to theologians, it is not a book on theology. Instead, it is an attempt by the author to seek spiritual enlightenment by sifting through religious literature. The author’s findings are illuminating. Every reader will find something of value in the book to give their life a better meaning.

Stratagem: Developing a Strategic Mindset

Have you ever attended a strategy meeting and wondered whether everyone in the forum understood what strategy meant? If you have, you are not alone. Interestingly, many such meetings roll on smoothly with impressive outcomes. That phenomenon is the ninth wonder of the world. Some participants probably spend many hours after the meeting engrossed in self-doubt or guilt, depending upon how loudly they spoke during the session. A cold or hot beverage usually works wonders during such moments of self-reflection. If you are one of those who experience self-doubt but usually emerge from strategy discussions with your conscience intact, you must count your blessings. You are a brave survivor. But whatever category you belong to, you have the cure for strategy-fuzziness right at your fingertips. Stratagem describes strategy with exceptional lucidity. Well-thought-out strategies are not only essential for business success; they are critical for success in personal life.

Archetypes of Human Existence: A New Perspective

Out of the more than seven billion people who inhabit the earth, no two are exactly the same. Even tweens have differences. And yet, the behavior of human beings can be reduced to a few archetypes. At the heart of the matter, each human being is one single entity comprised of a mind and a physical body. A mind that yearns for happiness and a body that longs for sustenance. The interplay of these two needs creates the different archetypes of humans. This book explores a few of the archetypes. It discusses how the ideas around archetypes converge to offer a new perspective on fundamental questions that existentialists have been grappling with for ages. The people described in the second chapter of the book are entirely fictitious. Any resemblance of their names to real people is purely coincidental. However, the characters are real and live among us. You may recognize some of them in your local community, your network of friends, or even in other human networks to which you are directly or indirectly connected.
