Community Policing

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"This book draws on Michael Palmiotto's vast domestic and international expertise and reputation in the area of law enforcement. Here, he provides a clear and readable presentation of relevant issues in community policing doing so in a fashion suitable for students, academicians and practitioners alike."-Larry French, Justiceworks Institute, University of New Hampshire

"A must read book for all students seeking a broad based understanding of the police role in modern society. The guest written international case studies; relationship between the police and social institutions; policing special populations and police operations against trans-national crimes are all novel features useful for class discussions. A book strongly recommended to instructors for classroom adoption."-Arvind Verma, Criminal Justice, Indiana State University

"Saying that Palmiotto's book is comprehensive is a near record understatement. Finally someone that understands the essential ingredients of community policing has prepared a readable and enjoyable text that includes all of the historical, social, political, and law enforcement perspectives needed to fathom and implement this successful model of policing."-Keith Haley, Criminal Justice, Tiffin University

"The philosophy of Community Policing is an important development away from the traditional policing paradigm. The author identifies not only the philosophy but the importance of ethics and interpersonal skills. It is those skills that allow for diversity to be embraced in order that the citizens can support their police agency."-Brian Kingshott, Criminal Justice, Grand Valley State University
