The purpose of Lost Person Behavior is simple -- to help searches look in the right place to find subjects faster. However, to accomplish that goal it takes more than just reading. This Practical Map Exercise book was designed to be an integral part of a Lost Person Behavior training class. The book contains 29 map activities and handouts used in the class. Participants will be able to use 38 full-color maps. This allows participants to practice key concepts by working through actual searches. These searches potentially represent several years of actual search experience. Knowledge, training, and experience saves lives.
