Editorial Reviews

Review
“[i]nvaluable for courses in: criminal justice, law enforcement, police and community relations, and women in crime and justice.”–Crime & Justice International

“Police and Policing: Contemporary Issues is invaluable for courses in: criminal justice, law enforcement, police and community relations, and women in crime and justice. Since the publication of the first edition of this text in 1989, there has been a dramatic increase in the amount of research being conducted on the police as well as in public interest about the role of law enforcement.”–The Literature of Criminal Justice
