| 520 | |a "POLICING is extraordinarily controversial. Often, the controversy of the police is discussed in relation to the use of force, especially the misuse of deadly force. But the controversies that surround the police go beyond this critical issue. There is much disagreement and debate about the appropriateness, necessity, fairness, and effectiveness of many police activities. Much of this controversy is fueled by misunderstanding, and unfortunately, there are a lot of misunderstandings when it comes to the police. A lot of what we believe about policing is based on false or unsubstantiated assumptions, or misleading representations of it. These uninformed (and unresolved) debates are a barrier to good policing. Ultimately, if we wish to improve policing, we need, at least as a starting point, an accurate understanding of it. We need to be able to differentiate fact from fiction in matters relating to the police. Police in America addresses this issue by providing a real-world fact-based discussion of policing in the United States. If an accurate understanding of the police in America is the objective, then a discussion of the research that has been conducted on policing is necessary to reach that objective. Research findings can identify and dispel the many myths, misconceptions, and false assumptions of policing. Research also can also help identify best practices in policing as well as those practices in need of improvement, which is exactly the aim of the now-popular strategy of evidence-based policing. Police in America emphasizes police research. This emphasis does not mean that the book is complicated or difficult to read, however. In fact, the opposite is true: The text is easy to read and accessible to students. It is written in a straightforward and conversational manner. Police in America provides a realistic portrayal of the police. It provides a multitude of examples of how policing is conducted in agencies across the country. It emphasizes positive aspects of policing but does so without ignoring or sugarcoating the problematic aspects of policing. The media tend to focus on negative incidents by highlighting the bad or questionable conduct of a few officers. Although there are certainly lessons to be learned from such incidents, these images and stories can provide an inaccurate overall picture of the police. The reality is that exemplary police work is being performed by police officers and law enforcement agencies throughout the country. Police in America highlights some of this work"-- | ||
