Turning Tragedy Into Victory: Lessons Learned from Cops Who Have Fallen Enforcing the Law - Softcover
Synopsis
The author of influential books such as Force Under Pressure and Stoning the Keepers at the Gate, Dr. Lawrence N. Blum is a renowned expert on the psychology of police officers. With TURNING TRAGEDY INTO VICTORY, he returns to and expands on the important subject of how to best help those who have sworn to protect and serve when they are the ones who have fallen.
According to Blum, officers' lack of knowledge and skill in controlling the stress of the moment has increased their risk of beingkilled, assaulted or making mistakes that cost them dearly in career or family relationships. Through visceral, real-life accounts of officers that he has personally worked with, he identifies pitfalls, errors and traps that are created when officers lose control over how their brains and bodies react to unexpected crises; explains why and how this lack of control occurs and provides mental, emotional and behavioral tools that have proven highly effective at enhancing performance. Above all, Blum says, officers must learn the important lessons that come from their experiences and commit themselves to the quest for mastery in law enforcement: in other words, to turn tragedy into victory.
This book is an indispensable resource for those who are police officers, those who work with them and those who wish to keep them safe among the increasing dangers and challenges of today's society.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An Unchanged Mind begins with a clinical riddle: Why are American teenagers failing to develop normally through adolescence? We are presented with case studies from a therapeutic boarding school for troubled teenagers: All new students had been deemed treatment "failures" after conventional psychiatric care. All were bright teenagers, full of promise, not obviously "ill." Yet they found themselves unprepared for the challenges of modern adolescence and inevitably failedat school, at home, and among their peers socially. An Unchanged Mind is the discovery of the essence of this problemdisrupted maturation and resulting immaturity. The book explains the problem carefully, with a brief review of normal development and an examination of the delays today's teenagers are suffering: the causes of those delays and how they produce a flawed approach to living. There is a solution. With a sustained push to help troubled kids catch up, symptoms abate, academic and interpersonal functioning improve, and parents pronounce their teens miraculously recovered. This remedy is not a matter of pharmacologyand the cure is not in pills. The remedy is, instead, to grow up.
