From the author: "The life of a cop may not be as glamorous as the image portrayed on the 'big screen,' but it's a lot more satisfying. READY, AIM, TRUST will allow you a unique vantage point into a police officer's life. My goal in writing this manuscript was to be transparent and express my thought processes as well as eventual outcomes. American Policing must reengage with our neighborhoods. This is only possible by increasing TRUST between police and their community. This book invites you to follow me from a young rookie in 1980, through my retirement as a captain in 2010. While I have been assigned to a wide-range of assignments, from high school undercover narcotics detective to a captain overseeing political corruption, good police work has two constants; building public trust and fighting bullies. Ensuring ethical soundness requires us to search beneath the surface. As we forge ahead in the 21st century, we must ensure technological advancements have not diminished the importance of human relationships. The philosophy of Community Oriented Policing maximizes both technological advancements and human partnerships to improve our neighborhoods." . 1st ed? (No additional printings listed). Softcover. Very Good condition. Illus. by NOT a library discard. viii, 303pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

About About Books

About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
