Policing in America, Ninth Edition,provides a thorough analysis of
the key issues in policing today, and offers an issues-oriented
discussion focusing on critical concerns such as personnel systems,
organization and management, operations, discretion, use of force,
culture and behavior, ethics and deviance, civil liability, and
police-community relations. In the field of law enforcement in the
United States, it is essential to know the contemporary problems
being faced and combine that knowledge with empirical research and
theoretical reasoning to arrive at best practices and an
understanding of policing. The text opens with a critical
assessment of police history and the role politics played in the
development of American police institutions and concludes with
consideration of such contemporary issues as globalization,
terrorism, and homeland security. Appropriate for introductory
policing courses, this new edition not only offers updated research
and examples, it also incorporates ways for the reader to connect
to the content through learning objectives, discussion questions,
and "Myths and Realities of Policing" boxes. Video and Internet
links provide additional coverage of important issues. With
completely revised and updated chapters, Policing in America, Ninth
Edition, provides an up-to-date examination of what to expect as a
police officer in America.
