"Interesting work" according to William Beaver. Comprehensive research. Opinions are grounded in the assembled data. The conclusions will not make everyone happy. Those with a favorite caliber might be surprised with the data in the tables in the back of the book.. Anybody interested in self defense should read this A Customer I suspect alot of magazine publishers aren't going to like this book as many of them make a habit of publishing articles that put different spins on bullet stopping power all the time. This book is the "Bible" of all handgun stopping power studies. In clear common sense approach and tons of statistics and research, Marshall shows why jello blocks and other methodologies come up short. You can't dispute actual shootings, and Marshall carefully pored over thousands of police shootings to find out what different bullets do in a typical one shot incident. This book will fascinate everyone from a casual reader interested in gun. A Must-Have and a Great Read Mark K. Mcdonough This is everything a reference book should be. The authors have done a ton of research, gathered and collated "street results," and written a book that is actually a great deal of fun to browse through (thanks in large part to the inclusion of many brief "case histories").They also get big points for examining accepted wisdom and analyzing the methodology of previous researchers. One of the authors mentioned that he also attended 400 autopsies as part of his research for the book!I bought this sight unseen for a gun-loving pal, based on good word of mouth. Didn't get a chance to actually see it until a couple of weeks ago
