This book presents a powerful and thorough investigation into
police deviance and sexual misconduct in the US. Drawing on news
reports, official government press releases and academic research
sources, Barker examines a wide array of cases including sexual
harassment, sexual abuse, child molestation and police killings,
including those of prisoners behind bars. Substantiated with
additional cases from the UK, Russia and beyond, analysis is also
conducted of the experiences of the victims of those crimes.
Aggressors in Blue argues that this misconduct has its roots in the
nature of the law enforcement occupation, and outlines the typical
conditions which enables police sexual abuse to take place. This is
a bold new investigation which speaks to students and academics in
criminal justice, criminology and social justice in particular, as
well as to scholars, social justice advocates, law enforcement
professionals, policy-makers and academics in other related
disciplines.
The legal industry has long been risk averse, but when it comes to
adapting to the experience-driven world created by companies like
Netflix, Uber, and Airbnb, adherence to the old status quo could be
the death knell for today's law firms. In The Client-Centered Law
Firm, Clio cofounder Jack Newton offers a clear-eyed and timely
look at how providing a client-centered experience and running an
efficient, profitable law firm aren't opposing ideas. With this
approach, they drive each other. Covering the what, why, and how of
running a client-centered practice, with examples from law firms
leading this revolution as well as practical strategies for
implementation, The Client-Centered Law Firm is a rallying call to
unlock the enormous latent demand in the legal market by providing
client-centered experiences, improving internal processes, and
raising the bottom line.
