Abstract
:
"The threat of terrorism is an everyday reality for Israeli businesspeople. Their resourcefulness, courage, and strength under such extreme circumstances teaches us valuable lessons about preparing for disaster on our own soil while meeting the needs and challenges of normal operations. The organizations represented in Business Under Fire are at the forefront of a new philosophy of business continuity, one that states unambiguously a commitment to survival, even success, in times of turmoil."--BOOK JACKET.
