The events of September 11, 2001, compelled the American public to look at air travel as much more than merely another way of getting from point A to point B.

In this compelling critique of the security measures taken after September 11, aviation security expert Andrew Thomas considers the proposed solutions to the vulnerability of airlines in terms of practically, cost, and effectiveness, and outlines a better strategic approach for government and the aviation industry to meet new and existing threats while continuing to serve the public in an efficient manner.
