A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Police Field Operations has become a standard Criminal Justice text since its first edition, which was published in 1985. Many police departments have also used it as a sourcebook for promotional examinations up to, and including, captain.

The sixth edition has been completely re-written from cover to cover in an effort to assure the student and practitioner alike that the book reflects modern policing in the twenty-first century. It has been considered far better as a text and reference than all of its competitors, many of which have dropped by the wayside.

New to this edition:

• Special emphasis has been placed on the community policing aspect of law enforcement.
• Updated legal references
• The addition of the latest legal developments
• Expanded section on evidence and the collection of evidence and the elements of crime
• Expanded section on the laws of arrest and custody
• The report writing section has been updated and refined to include all the latest technology

The emphasis of this text is the day-to-day police operations, such as responding to calls for service, handling emergency and "routine" activities, and making arrests. Police Field Operations, Sixth Edition is right on the cutting edge of law enforcement today as the first edition was in 1985.

Quatrième de couverture

The fifth edition of Police Field Operations prepares the criminal justice professional to meet the challenges of the new millennium. It has been completely updated to reflect how the policing profession should be done today and many tomorrows to come. The text reflects the increasing emphasis on community oriented policing practiced by police and sheriffs' departments throughout the nation.

Police Field Operations has been recognized as a standard for modern policing practices and procedures by many police and sheriffs' departments and other agencies as a resource for promotional examinations to supervisory and management positions.
