Ric Edelman, Rick Edelman. HarperBusiness, $14.95 (160pp) ISBN 978-0-06-009403-4

In yet another demonstration of the industry's quick response to the September 11 terrorist attacks, Ric Edelman (The Truth About Money; Ordinary People, Extraordinary Wealth) offers Financial Security in Troubled Times: What You Need to Do Now. ""In the aftermath of that terrible day, people have begun to wonder about the safety and security of their jobs, their investments, their homes and their families,"" he writes. To that end, he presents eight chapters which discuss cash reserves, mortgages, job security, estate plans, investment strategies and more. And although readers might question the quality of a book that was written ""in just two days,"" this is nonetheless a timely financial guide. (Nov. 1)
