About this title

Review

"Practical Drug Enforcement author Michael D. Lyman is no cloistered academic; he brings to bear years of on-the-job experience with the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics. His experience gives him a balanced perspective, as he deftly blends a street cop mind-set with more academic themes. offers both hard-won street advice on [managing informants] as well as a thoughtful discussion of the subject that focuses on how entrapment can taint an investigation. Lyman's chapter discussing safety in drug raids should be mandatory reading at every law enforcement training academy. a superb follow-up to the original." - Hugh J. Martin, Director of Public Safety/Chief of Police for the City of Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, in Security Management, July 2002
