THE HEAT BOOK Your Personal Guide to Surviving High-Risk Environments What would you do if you came under fire? How would you react during an armed robbery? Could you survive an abduction, a violent protest, or a minefield? For humanitarian workers, journalists, NGO staff, diplomats, contractors, business travelers, and adventurers, these are not hypothetical questions—they are real-world risks. For years, HEAT (Hostile Environment Awareness Training) has been the global standard for preparing people to work and travel safely in high-risk environments. But traditional HEAT courses are expensive, difficult to access, and packed with more information than most people can absorb in just a few days. The HEAT Book changes that. Designed as a portable, self-paced "mini-HEAT course," this practical survival guide gives you the essential knowledge and decision-making skills needed when things go very, very wrong. But this isn't just another security manual. You'll follow Ashley and her colleagues as they embark on their first humanitarian deployment to the fictional Central African nation of Zembala. Along the way, you'll face realistic security dilemmas, make critical decisions, explore different outcomes, and learn proven survival techniques drawn from the author's two decades of experience in humanitarian security and law enforcement. Inside you'll learn how to prepare for and respond to: Armed robbery Active shooters and gunfire Road traffic accidents Vehicle checkpoints Violent demonstrations Ambushes Landmines and unexploded ordnance Bombings Kidnapping and hostage situations Personal security while traveling And many other hostile environment threats Whether you're preparing for your first deployment, refreshing your security knowledge, or simply fascinated by survival and crisis management, The HEAT Book provides practical, experience-based guidance that could one day make a critical difference.
