Review
"The greatest strengths of this text are its progressive approach, the manner in which controversial issues are addressed, and the inclusion of practical data such as officer deployment plans, budgets, and training curricula." ― John Race, University of Pittsburgh
From the Back Cover
Proactive Police Management 5/e demonstrates how police managers can address crime problems through short and long term planning, using police personnel and resources effectively to deliver a wide range of police services to their respective communities. Today, despite the decrease in national crime rates, there is great public concern and debate regarding police management practices related to street crime suppression tactics and related issues such as brutality, corruption, use of force and treatment of minority citizens. Police leaders and policy makers are confronted with a vast array of operational issues related to organizational construction, human resource administration, and budget planning and technology acquisition.
All the chapters of Proactive Police Management 5/e have been revised and updated to reflect police management issues and new concepts in this millennium. A new chapter on police technology has been added because of the increasing importance of this topic on operations and the changes that continue to occur in the digital revolution. Examples from 911, computer-aided dispatch, global positioning and computer mapping have been taken from some of the most technological advanced departments today.
Addressing these issues through a blend of theoretical background and practical application, Proactive Police Management 5/e continues to be widely used as both a text book for classes in police management and a reference text for managers to deal with operational issues in their departments. It is also used as a training tool for police administration courses. Together, the authors have decades of experience in criminal justice education, policy research, and police management, sharing their own experience in dealing with the complex world of American policing.
