"Practical Police Psychology addresses the psychologically complex world of modern policing. It analyzes the unusual crises and everyday challenges faced by all law enforcement personnel, from the street cop to the departmental brass. But Practical Police Psychology goes beyond mere academic analysis, to offer usable, down-to-earth, and immediately applicable - that is, practical - guidelines and recommendations for improving the quality of policing on a daily basis."--Jacket
