Each review is expected to be between 1,000 and 1,250 words typed. As a rule of thumb, the first half of the review should be a summary of the information contained in the article, and the second half should contain your critical analysis and review of the article. Your submission should cover the major theory or thesis, research methodology and population studied (if any), major arguments or points of view, findings or conclusions, and major issues. It should also include a critique of the author’s work and its implications and usefulness for security managers and administrators. APA Style guidelines will be adhered to in all respects.
