The Globalization of Evidence-Based Policing - Innovations in Bridging the Research-Practice Divide (Hardcover)

1. While there is a growing literature on evidence-based policing, many of the books merely introduce the main concepts and approaches. The proposed book goes further in examining how research and practice can be merged. 2. This book speaks to the ongoing professionalization of the police service in both the US and the UK, so could be used as supplementary reading on a range of more applied courses on police practice. 3. The international case-study approach will make the research that informs the practice come alive for students.
