Abstract
|
:
|
"This text begins with background on the concepts and history of community policing, then covers the police and public perception, managing and implementing community policing, and community policing and crime prevention, drugs, and special populations. There is also a chapter on countering resistance to community policing in traditional police culture. The book concludes with ten principles of community policing, and profiles in community policing demonstrating that community policing can work in any kind of police department, from large municipalities to small towns. About 20 pages of problem-solving case studies are included. Kappeler teaches criminal justice and police studies at Eastern Kentucky University. Gaines teaches criminal justice at California State University-San Bernardino." -- Publisher's description
