Interesting in what sense? Is this stuff you've reviewed and like, or just a random list of some of the literature for and/or about the industry?

save your money, i have bought a couple of these books for fun. such as how to bypass alarms. after reading the whole book they tell you how to by pass them.. simply smash the control box. well worth the $15 bucks the book cost. Also I have the one on safecracking, They have a picture in there of a guy manipulating a sentry, which is possible, but the great part is he is using a listening device, obvious to anybody in the trade the author watches to much tv and does not know how to open safes. but go ahead and waste your money, they need to make a living too.
