This mainstream text for community policing and police-community relations courses uses cases in each chapter to illustrate concepts and to relate theory to practice.
This text is unique because it includes "the best of both worlds" - the basics and hot issues found in most standard texts on community policing, plus cases in each chapter that complement the concepts and help bridge between theory and practice. Written in a user-friendly style, the text involves the reader as an active participant, encouraging critical thinking throughout and giving readers an array of strategies to improve policing in the twenty-first century.
