Very good book on crisis management, clearly written and with a solid understandable structure. The author presents a decent series of cases to exemplify how a crisis should (and should not) be managed. Definitively a good manual to keep aside when redesigning /testing / improving your ERO (I am taking the broadest fishnet here)
This is a good book for a basic overview of reputation management. I would recommend it as the CEO of http://repairbadreputation.com/ as an excellent resource.
