[Greg · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a well documented book by a practicing psychologist that explains some innovative strategies for enhancing performance in a combative context.

Not only for cops, this book has value for anyone who carries a gun or has to deal with criminal violence in any form.

I'm sure this book has a ton of great information, but the writing style continued to put me to sleep. I am a voracious reader and usually cannot wait to get back to a book I'm reading. That wasn't the case with this one; in fact, I dreaded my scheduled reading time. Last night, I finally decided that I didn't need to waste any more time reading a book that I dreaded opening.
