Features: The authors believe that research on crisis negotiation suitable for China's national conditions has three theoretical sources: theoretical works on police science and crisis management from Europe and America, ancient Chinese military strategy thoughts, and practical cases of anti-hostage-taking. This book also classifies negotiation experts into three types: "Zhuge Liang type," "Zhao Zilong type," and "Empress Xiaozhuang type." It points out the "Six Un advisable Actions" in hostage negotiation, which are: 1. "Enemy advances, we advance"; 2. "Agree immediately"; 3. "Lack of sincerity"; 4. "Never give in"; 5. "Indifferent to life and death"; 6. "Hurry for success." The book is divided into two parts: the upper part is Crisis Police Negotiation, consisting of nine chapters; the lower part is an Introduction to Crisis Police, divided into five sections; followed by an appendix with five articles. The creation of this book is based on China's actual national conditions, widely drawing on the theoretical achievements and practical techniques of crisis negotiation from police departments in developed countries in Europe and America, aiming to create a negotiation manual suitable for Chinese public security departments' criminal police team leaders, traffic and patrol team leaders, police station chiefs, and prison wardens to handle sudden crisis events. This negotiation manual has strong targeting and practical guidance.
